San Francisco Giants

The San Francisco Giants, who previously made a significant trade to acquire Rafael Devers, are now struggling and find themselves in fourth place in the NL West. Despite high expectations following the trade, the team's performance has declined, and they now face the reality of being spoilers for the remainder of the season. Their recent loss to the Padres, where starter Justin Verlander struggled, further highlights the team's current struggles. Looking ahead, lefty Carson Whisenhunt will start in the upcoming game against the Brewers. The Giants will need to overcome key injuries to several players, including Matt Chapman, Ryan Murphy, Ethan Small, Tom Murphy, and Cole Waites.

Milwaukee Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers have been on a hot streak, winning a franchise-record 14 straight games and taking a commanding lead in the NL Central Division. Despite a rough patch in Chicago, they bounced back with a 4-1 win on Thursday, led by Brice Turang's strong performance. The Brewers aim to continue their success against the Giants, starting with southpaw Jose Quintana on Friday night. Quintana has a solid record this season and the Brewers have won three of his last five starts. Key injuries include 1B Rhys Hoskins being out.

Brewers Poised to Dominate Giants at Home with Strong Pitching and Offense

This weekend, the Brewers are poised to capitalize on their home field advantage against the struggling Giants, led by rookie lefty Whisenhunt. With a strong record of 42-20 at home this season, the Brewers hold a clear advantage. Whisenhunt, with an ERA of 5.02 and a history of giving up home runs, is likely to struggle against the Brewers' potent lineup. Starting pitcher Quintana has also shown strong performances recently, with a 1-0 record against the Giants and an impressive ERA of 1.50. His past success against the Giants, where he allowed just one run in six innings, bodes well for the Brewers. With Quintana on the mound and the Brewers' hot offense, the Giants are expected to face a tough challenge. In this matchup, the smart choice is to take the Giants with the money line.
