He got pounded in his last start against the Giants allowing 5 runs in just 3.1 innings.
BETTING TRENDS
San Francisco are 6-2 SU in their last 8 games.
San Francisco are 10-0 SU in their last 10 games against Colorado.
The total has gone OVER in 6 of Colorado's last 7 games at home.
Colorado are 0-6 SU in their last 6 games when playing at home against San Francisco.
Prediction
The Giants have dominated the Rockies beating them in 10 straight games and Alex Wood held them to zero runs in his last meeting while Senzatela got pounded by the Giants. The Rockies are allowing more than 5 runs per game so the Giants should't have any problems to win this game. Take the Giants.
PICK: Giants -1.5 (-105)
