San Francisco Giants

The Giants jump into this evening’s matchup with a 24-24 record that ranks them 3^rd in the NL West. Despite having a .500 record, San Fran is only 2-games behind the division-leading Colorado Rockies. And while that may place them in contention for the lead in the NL West, San Francisco will need better results down the road if they are to make that push. All in all, the Giants are 2-3 in their last 5 and could desperately use a rebound. However, the Giants may have already laid the foundation for that rebound as they enter this evening’s matchup riding a 2-game winning streak. To help keep the momentum going, the Giants will be sending Andrew Suarez to the mound this evening. Suarez is 1-3 on the year with a whopping 4.88 ERA and a 1.27 WHIP.

Players to Watch: Brandon Belt (11 HR, 29 RBI, .313 BA), Brandon Crawford (4 HR, 19 RBI, .302 BA), and Evan Longoria (8 HR, 23 RBI, .256 BA).

Houston Astros  

The Astros fly into this evening’s matchup with a 30-18 record that ranks them 1^st in the AL West. At the present moment, Houston owns a 2-game lead over the Seattle Mariners, their nearest threat in the division. So far, the Astros have been doing a decent job of holding onto the division lead. In their last 5 games, Houston has posted a 4-1 record. And to beat up on the Giants this evening, Houston will be starting Gerrit Cole. Cole is 4-1 on the season with a 1.75 ERA and a 0.79 WHIP.

Players to Watch: George Springer (9 HR, 28 RBI, .292 BA), Carlos Correa (8 HR, 31 RBI, .274 BA), and Josh Reddick (6 HR, 18 RBI, .227 BA).
