Rockies Pitchers Are Pretty Gracious Hosts

Playing the home games in the Mile High City certainly doesn’t help but that is not the only reason that the Colorado Rockies are the only team with an ERA over 5.00 at home this season.

The 5.46 ERA at Coors Field is an improvement from the numbers during the 2023 season when the Rockies pitchers had a home ERA of 6.12

Austin Gomber is the only starter with an ERA under 4.00 at home this MLB season as he is 1-1 with a 3.54 ERA at Coors Field this season. He does lead the Rockies with nine home runs allowed at home this season. That could play a role in the Giants vs Rockies baseball odds.

  • Six of the 14 Colorado pitchers with at least 10 innings thrown at home have ERAs higher than 5.00 and that is not a recipe for success.

Each of Colorado’s last six games went over the total.

Giants Love Seeing the Bases Loaded With Runners

Not all of the offensive numbers for the San Francisco Giants are ones to brag about, but Giants hitters have been delivering with the bases loaded.

San Francisco is sixth in the majors and fourth in the National League with a .532 slugging percentage with the bases loaded and that includes five grand slam home runs.

Michael Conforto is hitting .400 with the bases loaded with both hits going for extra bases. Wilmer Flores has a .429 average and 1.000 slugging percentage with the bases loaded this season. Keep that in mind when looking at the Giants vs Rockies baseball odds.

  • Twelve of San Francisco’s last 18 games against National League teams went over the total.

Who’s Hot

  • Brenton Doyle, Colorado Rockies OF: Doyle is hitting .422 with 10 runs, five doubles, eight home runs, and 15 RBIs in his last 13 games.
  • Kyle Freeland, Colorado Rockies P: Freeland has a 1.71 ERA with 21 strikeouts in his last four games.
  • Heliot Ramos, San Francisco Giants OF: Ramos is hitting .317 with three home runs, six runs, and eight RBIs over his 10 games.

Giants vs Rockies Betting Preview

Nine of the last 11 times that the Giants have played on the road against the Rockies, the game had a total of 10 or higher so it should not be a surprise to see the total at 10.5 for the series opener. Seven of the last 11 times that the Rockies took the field with a total at 10 or higher, the game landed under the total.

  • Four of the last six games between the Giants and the Rockies finished over the total. It might be a surprise to some who bet online that eight of the 13 times that the Giants played at hitter-friendly Coors Field, the game went under the total.

San Francisco has covered just four of 13 games as a road favorite. Colorado is 24-21 against the run line as the underdog at home.

When considering the best MLB bets, it should be noted that the Giants are tied for the MLB lead with 53 games landing over the total.

The Rockies have 22 extra-base hits in six games against the Giants this season with the Giants topping that with 23 extra-base hits including four each from Matt Chapman and Luis Matos.

The Rockies have yet to be a betting favorite this season. Don’t look for that to change in this series especially since the Rockies are just 20-25 outright as a home underdog this season.
