Why Bet the San Francisco Giants

The Giants are a good bet because they’re the superior ballclub in every way. The Giants are being touted as one of the early favorites to win the 2016 World Series and for good reason, seeing as how they’ve won the last three even-year World Series (2010, 2012, 2014).Johnny Cueto will make his debut for the Giants in this start after going 4-7 with a 4.76 ERA in 13 starts for Kansas City last season. For his career, Cueto is just 1-3 with a 4.19 ERA in seven starts at Miller Field.

Why Bet the Milwaukee Brewers

Because they’re playing at home against a mediocre starter. With just three position players remaining from last season’s squad, the Milwaukee Brewers are clearly in a rebuilding mode this season. The good news is that Jimmy Nelson was clearly Milwaukee’s best starter a year ago, leading the team in starts (30), wins (11), innings pitched (177.1) and strikeouts (148). Nelson went 1-13 with a 4.11 ERA but has added a changeup to his repertoire to become a four-pitch threat.

Expert Prediction and Pick

The Milwaukee Brewers may be playing at home in this contest and they may have the better starter, but it is the San Francisco Giants that are my pick to get the win against the young Brewers, mostly because they have the better manager, and the edge at almost every position on the field.Sure, the Giants are just 8-19 in their last 27 road games, but Milwaukee has gone 1-8 in their last nine home games and 0-4 in their last four games against a right-handed starter and 1-4 in Nelson’s last five starts. I expect Johnny Cueto to give up about four runs, while Frisco scores five to get the ‘W’.My final score prediction: San Francisco 5 Milwaukee 4
