Prop Bets: Pittsburgh Pirates VS San Francisco Giants 2025-07-28

Giants vs. Pirates: A Tale of Two Teams (and a Mystery Pitcher)

The San Francisco Giants (-145) and Pittsburgh Pirates (+125) clash in a game that’s as lopsided as a Pirate’s treasure map. The Giants, scoring 433 runs this season (23rd in MLB), are favored to outgun the Pirates, who’ve managed just 358 total runs (dead last). If the Bucs want to plunder any wins, they’ll need Mitch Keller to pitch like a buccaneer and their lineup to stop looking like a shipwreck.

Key Stats to Know:
- Giants’ Edge: San Francisco is 27-24 as a favorite with -125 or shorter odds this season. The Pirates? A meager 29-44 as underdogs.
- Run Production: The Giants score 4.8 runs per game; the Pirates muster just 3.9.
- Mystery Man on the Mound: The Giants haven’t named a starter, leaving fans wondering if their mystery pitcher is a secret run machine or just a guy who forgot his glove.

Odds Breakdown:
- Moneyline: Giants at -145 (57.1% implied probability), Pirates at +125 (44.4%).
- Spread: Giants -1.5 (-150) / Pirates +1.5 (+250). Bet the Under (7.5 runs, 1.83-1.98 odds) if you’re feeling conservative.

Player Props?
None listed for this game, unfortunately. If there were, we’d be eyeing Rafael Devers’ RBI potential or Oneil Cruz’s home run chances. As it stands, bettors are left to guess if the Pirates’ “team prop” is “Will they finally score more than three runs?” (Answer: Probably not.)

Final Verdict:
The Giants are the safer bet, but don’t be surprised if the Pirates pull off a heist. After all, baseball’s greatest underdogs have pulled off the impossible… or at least stolen a base.

Tip your cap to the Giants, but keep an eye on Keller. This game could be a classic case of “Pirates vs. Giants” — and we all know who usually wins that. 🏴‍☠️⚾
