OUR PREDICTION: Take the Giants with the plus points, which doesn’t happen often. The Rays are 1-4 in Archer’s last five starts, are 2-5 in his last seven starts coming off five days of rest, and are 0-4 in his last four outings following a quality start in his last appearance. The Giants, meanwhile, are 7-3 in Samardzija’s last 10 starts and should keep rolling with a victory today.
