That’s because around 95 percent of those wagering on this MLB game are backing the Giants with Johnny Cueto as a somewhat modest -132 favorite.

This does make perfect sense as San Francisco has dominated the series, winning nine of the last ten outright.

Also take into consideration that Cueto is 9-3 with a 2.87 ERA and 1.02 WHIP in 18 career starts against the Brewers.

You will probably want to be high on the Giants batters for those playing the Daily Fantasy Sports Baseball contests.

While there are so many reasons in which to go with the Giants at a decent price, San Francisco has had some issues on the road previous to this matchup. They are Just 9-19 in their last 28 road games.
