The San Francisco Giants split four games with the Padres to start the season and now must face their divisional rivals. The Dodgers come into this game with a 4-2 record. The Padres will send Keaton Winn while the Dodgers will go with James Paxton. Keaton Winn made five starts and nine appearances last season with a 1.04 WHIP and 35 strikeouts in 42.1 innings of work. The Dodgers already had a potent lineup and then they went out and landed Shohei Ohtani. Just like last year, it will come down to pitching for the Dodgers. In six games this season, the Dodgers have plated 40 runs. James Paxton will make his debut for the Dodgers. He made 19 starts last season, posting a 4.50 ERA with 101 strikeouts in 96 innings. Keaton Winn and James Paxton both posted ERA's above 4.00 a season ago. For the Giants, the over is 4-0 in 2024, with the team averaging six runs per game, and for the Dodgers the over is 6-0 and the Dodgers are putting up six runs per game. The Giants scored 25 runs in their first four games in San Diego. Both teams should find success against the opposing pitcher in this one and I wouldn’t be surprised if this goes over early in the game.

Play on the OVER. This is a 4% play.
