The NL West has not been virtually as superior as some envisioned moving into this time, as there are just two groups above .500 and the defending NL champion Arizona Diamondbacks are in fourth location.
The D-Backs are just 1.5 online games again of their opponent tonight – the San Francisco Giants – but neither staff is around .500 on the period. Injuries have ravaged the Giants’ lineup, and they’ll likely change to a starter who has built just a person visual appearance on the period on Monday.
Arizona is favored in this matchup at home as the Giants glimpse to snap a 4-match getting rid of streak.
Here’s all the things you have to have to know to bet on this matchup, including a finest guess.

San Francisco Giants
Patrick Bailey: The Giants are banged up on offense proper now, but catcher Patrick Bailey has thrived in opposition to Ryne Nelson in his vocation and could direct the workforce on Monday. Bailey is 2-for-6 with a double against Nelson. He also arrives into this matchup with a .298/.354/.465 slash line in 36 online games.
Arizona Diamondbacks
Ketel Marte: Final year’s NLCS MVP slumped a little bit in the thirty day period of May, but he acquired off to a sturdy start in June, going 3-for-3 with a pair of home operates on Sunday. Can he just take advantage of Howard, who was after a major prospect, in just his 2nd outing of 2024?
Spencer Howard was lights out in his initially outing of the season – albeit just as a result of 4 innings – keeping the Philadelphia Phillies scoreless and supplying up just five hits.
Philly is No. 5 in Major League Baseball in OPS (and Howard’s former group), however he was equipped to maintain it in check. The D-Backs, on the other hand, are 12th, and they’ve taken a action back again to open up 2024 soon after a sturdy playoff operate in 2023.
I don’t know if I give Howard an edge in this sport considering the fact that he’s built just just one start off in 2024, but I do know that Arizona has struggled when Nelson is on the mound.
Arizona is just 3-6 in his 9 starts, and the young righty now has a 6.02 Era just after supplying up four runs in 6 innings in opposition to the Texas Rangers in his final start.
San Francisco did not fare nicely versus the New York Yankees about the weekend, but this could be a prime place to get lower on the Giants with Arizona successful just 33 p.c of its games when Nelson starts off.
These teams have been fairly equal on the period, position 25th and 26th in Period and 12th and 15th in OPS. I’ll fade Nelson in this one particular.
Decide on: Giants Moneyline (+114)
