MLB Preview San Francisco Giants (25 – 27) at Colorado Rockies (27 – 25) by entity wagering investment company mkinvestllc, Las Vegas Nevada. Monday May 28 at Coors Field with the First Pitch at 7:10 PM EST. Before we get into the game analysis we hope everyone enjoys this Memorial Day and we truly thank all our veterans for their sacrifices for our country.


At the time of this writing the San Francisco Giants are playing the game of the week at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs. They will catch a flight to Colorado tonight to play the home Rockies, who played earlier Sunday and beat the Cincinnati Reds by the final score of 8-2. These two teams met earlier this month in San Francisco splitting a four-game series. Colorado starting pitcher Chad Bettis won his start 5 – 3. Looking at the last 10 meetings, 7 were played in San Francisco and the Giants hold a 6 – 4 edge in those 10 games. The Giants are playing around .500 ball but have been since the start of the season as they have not had any major winning streaks to speak of as they have had several 3 and 4 game winning streaks to go with their longest losing streak of 5 games. San Francisco is 14-10 at home and 11-17 on the road. The Colorado Rockies enter this game 2-games above .500 and actually have played better on the road going 19-13 and just 8-12 at home. The Rockies longest winning streak this year came on the road where they won 5 straight games. Colorado is 2-4-1 in series wins at home this season and just took 2 of 3 over the Cincinnati Reds. Over time these numbers balance out and it would be no surprise to see the Rockies win more games in the friendly confines of Coors Field.


San Francisco sends Andrew Suarez to mound who is 1-4 with an ERA of 5.68. He has gone 31.2 innings and allowed 22 runs on 37 hits, just 7 walks, and 6 home runs. After a decent start to the season, in his first 3 games, Suarez has regressed in his last 3 starts allowing 5 runs in each of those starts. He has gone just 14 innings allowing 15 runs. This will be Suarez’s first start against the Rockies and his first start at Coors Field.


The Colorado Rockies counter with Chad Bettis who is 4-1 with an ERA of 3.30. Bettis has gone 60 innings giving up 22 runs on 50 hits and 22 walks. Bettis has been consistent and other than the one start against Milwaukee, where he gave up 7 runs, he has held his opponents to 2 runs or less in 6 of his 10 starts, and in the other two starts he allowed 3 and 4 runs respectively. Bettis has faced San Francisco 8 times winning 5 of the 8 starts.

Inside the numbers with entity wagering investment company mkinvestllc:

San Francisco is just 1-5 in their last 6 games when facing a right-handed starter and 1-5 in Suarez’s last 6 starts overall. Long term the Giants are 19-40 in their last 59 road games.

The Rockies are 5-1 in their last 6 games when facing a left-handed starter and are 14-4 in Bettis last 18 home starts.

Head-to-Head we find the Rockies are 10-1 the last 11 times they hosted the SF Giants and the Rockies have won 5 of the last 7 games over the Giants when Bettis starts.

Current Line: Colorado -1.20, San Francisco +1.10. The total has been set at 11.5.

Prediction by mkinvestllc, an entity investment wagering company: In this section we typically give a final score prediction, however, today we are giving a side prediction. Given the starting pitching and current form of the starting pitchers, the current line of -1.20 is more than a fair price to lay on the Colorado Rockies.
