(Gambling911.com Sports Betting Wire) – The Rockies vs. Giants betting line had San Francisco as a huge -230 home favorite.
It’s interesting to note that Colorado has gone 6-4 over the last ten in this series. Eight of the last ten in this series have gone OVER the current number of 7. The OVER is 10-2 in the Rockies last 12 games overall.
PITCHING MATCHUP: Rockies RH Kyle Kendrick (3-9, 5.96 ERA) vs. Giants LH Madison Bumgarner (7-4, 3.04)
Kendrick had dropped three straight decisions before beating the Arizona Diamondbacks in his last outing. He gave up four runs and eight hits in six innings -- marking the fifth time in his last seven starts that he has allowed four or more runs. This gives even more support for the OVER here.
Bumgarner is 9-6 with a 3.13 ERA in 20 career starts against Colorado and is facing the Rockies for the first time this season and has been hot of late. But this won’t all be about Bumgarner.
We love the number of potential hot hitters for Daily Fantasy players on both sides of this matchup and there are Rockies hitters who have enjoyed success against Bumgarner.
Wilin Rosario, who went 2-for-3 yesterday, has hit 10-for-31 with six RBIs against Bumgarner. Troy Tulowski has also been solid versus Bumgarner, going 10-for-26.
Buster Posey, who hit 2-for-3 yesterday, with 2 RBIs had hit half of his 12 at bats versus Kendrick.
You gotta love the Rockies Matt Duffy Sunday after going 3-for-4 yesterday with a homer. He has hit 1-for-4 against Kendrick. You will get Duffy at $3000. - Dan Shapiro, Gambling911.com
