San Francisco Giants at Miami Marlins Prediction

Heading into Thursday’s matchup between San Francisco and Miami, the Marlins are the favorite to pick up the win. However, I see this as an opportunity to get some good odds on the Giants. Look for Alex Wood to get back on track, as he is facing a Marlins team that will be playing its 3rd game in 2 days, and dealing with a grueling travel schedule. I like San Francisco on the moneyline.
