San Francisco Giants vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 9/3/24, 5:46 PM  by Carlos Zabala in MLB Picks

The Diamondbacks face a new series after the painful loss against the Dodgers at Chae Field by 3 games to 1. Now they will travel to Oracle Park to face the Giants, but after losing 5 of the 7 games in the last home stand the D-backs still have a streak of 6 games winning on the road.

The offense of Lovullo's team continues to dominate in the MLB, Gurriel Jr has 17 HRs, 70 RBIs and 22 doubles, while Suarez is batting 15-for-39 with 5 HRs in the last 10 games. It has been the pitching that has failed in the series at home, in the last 10 games the D-backs have registered an ERA of 5.20 and 8 of their last 10 games have resulted in a Game Total OVER.

The Giants have also lost 4 of their last 5 including a series against the Marlins, so the Giants' playoff odds are, frankly, slim, but they will face a series of games against direct rivals like the D-backs and Padres that could turn things around.

Yastrzemski leads the Giants in hitting recently, hitting 100 career HRs with the 3 he's hit in the last 10 games. Regarding his team's odds, Yastrzemski said, "I feel like we're still working the right way,"
