Prop Bets: San Francisco Giants VS Arizona Diamondbacks 2025-07-01
Giants vs. Diamondbacks: A Walk in the Park for the Underdogs?
The San Francisco Giants (+112) are set to face the Arizona Diamondbacks (-137) in a pivotal July clash, and if you thought this game would be a snoozer, think again. With Zac Gallen (5.75 ERA) on the mound for Arizona and the Giants’ bullpen sporting a 2.93 ERA, this could be a "let’s see how bad Gallen looks" special.
Key Numbers to Know:
- Gallen’s Gift Shop: The Diamondbacks’ starter has been a free pass this season, issuing 4.1 walks per game. The Giants are a solid bet to draw 3+ walks from Gallen at +135. Let’s just say, if you’ve ever wanted to see a pitcher throw 100 pitches in the first inning, this is your chance.
- Bullpen Battle: The Giants’ relief corps (2.93 ERA) will be the real star if this game is close. Their "underdog magic" (51.7% win rate as underdogs) could clash with Arizona’s "favorite fade" (51.8% when favored). Spoiler: Favorites don’t like to win here.
- Power Play: The D-backs lead MLB in scoring (5.2 runs/game), but their slugger Josh Naylor (1.5 HR prop at -140) might need a nap to hit this number.
Prop Pick of the Night:
Giants Draw 3+ Walks from Gallen (+135). Gallen’s control? More like no control.
Final Verdict:
The Giants’ best bet isn’t just to win—they’re better off cashing in on Gallen’s wildness. Take the 3+ walks prop and root for a bullpen showdown. If you must pick a team, the Giants (+112) have the edge to cover the spread, especially if Gallen’s ERA hits triple digits before the 4th inning.
Prediction: Giants 4, Diamondbacks 5 (but only after 12 walks and 3 hours of tension). 🎩⚾
