San Francisco Giants Fantasy Spin
Pablo Sandoval tattooed a pinch-hit homer in the Giants’ win over the Diamondbacks on Saturday. Sandoval came off the bench to take Diamondbacks’ reliever Matt Andriese deep in the eighth inning. The 32-year-old third baseman has enjoyed a shocking renaissance campaign in San Francisco, hitting .293/.318/.634 with six homers and one steal in 85 plate appearances. He’s been limited to a part-time role and doesn’t offer enough upside to warrant a pickup outside of NL-Only formats, but it’s difficult to overlook how well he’s hit the ball in limited opportunities this season.
Arizona Diamondbacks Fantasy Spin
Eduardo Escobar went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in the Diamondbacks’ loss to the Giants on Saturday. Escobar put the Diamondbacks on the board by launching a solo homer, his 10th round-tripper of the season, off Giants’ starter Madison Bumgarner in the fourth inning. The 30-year-old third baseman remains a solid four-category fantasy contributor, hitting .289/.359/.561 with 28 runs scored and 31 RBI across 195 plate appearances.
MLB Betting Trends
San Francisco
The Giants are 50-109 in their last 159 road games versus an opponent with a winning record.
Arizona
The Diamondbacks have lost 17 of their last 25 home games when facing a left-handed starter.
Prediction:
The Diamondbacks have won five of their last seven games against the Giants when Robby Ray starts. They’re also a perfect 4-0 in Ray’s last four outings overall, are 22-9 in his last 31 starts versus a team with a losing record and are 5-1 in his last six outings after allowing five runs or more in their previous game. The Giants, meanwhile, are winless in their last five games coming off a win and are 14-29 in their last 43 road games despite winning yesterday in Arizona.
