The Colorado Rockies are currently 65-88 and are the last-seeded team in the NL West. They unfortunately have been eliminated from the playoffs. Over their last 10 games, they are 3-7 and are on a two-game losing streak. They are coming off a series against the San Diego Padres where they lost two of the three games they played at home. Heading into this game against the Giants, the Rockies will have German Marquez take the mound for them. On the season, Marquez is 8-12 with an ERA of 5.15 and a WHIP of 1.16. Marquez has started two games against the Giants this season and he is 1-1 on the season. In his most recent start, he received a loss as he pitched 5 innings and allowed 3 runs and 9 hits. The Rockies are a great hitting team as they rank #6 around the league for batting average with a .256. On top of that, they are also the 6th ranked team for the number of hits with 1,344. Unfortunately, they are not as good at pitching as they are hitting. They rank last in ERA with a 5.07. Hard for them to be competitive when while they’re scoring runs, they’re giving up a lot. 

The San Francisco Giants are currently 75-78 and are in third place in the NL West. Their chances of making the playoffs are very slim and can be eliminated soon. Over their last 10 games, they are 6-4 and are on a one-game winning streak. They are coming off a series against the Arizona Diamondbacks where they won two of the games they played on the road. In this game against the Rockies, pitcher Logan Webb will take the mound for the Giants. On the season, Webb is 14-9 with an ERA of 2.93 and a WHIP of 1.16. This will be the fourth time that Webb pitches against the Rockies and he has a record of 1-1. In his last game against the Rockies, he was awarded the win as he pitched 5.1 innings and struck out 5 batters while giving up one hit and no runs. They rank 23rd in the league for hits and batting average with 1,187 and .233, respectively. Fortunately for them, they rank 10th in the league for ERA with a 3.84.

I think the Giants win this game and extend their series lead over the Rockies. I think Webb will continue to find success against Colorado. The Rockies are a great hitting team but their inability to shut down opposing teams’ bats might be the downfall for them in this game. 

For our expert Colorado Rockies vs San Francisco Giants pick, take the Giants -1.5.
