My Analysis
Let's end the first half making some more money with this ace.
On July 3rd at Arizona I came with Giants stud Robbie Ray and he didn't disappoint throwing a complete game in San Fran's 7-2 win.
On 102 pitches, he allowed just 3 hits.
He followed that up with 5 2/3 innings at home against the Phillies allowing 1 run on 3 hits in the Giants 4-3 win.
He is now 9-3 with a 2.07 ERA.
This is his 20th start of the year and with him on the mound, his Giant teammates have won 15 of those 20 starts.
You dig a little deeper and you will find the Giants as a team have won 7 of his 9 home starts this year.
The two he lost: A no decision in the 3-1 loss to the Royals and his only home loss of the year, 3-2 to the Guardians.
All things considered he is 4-1 in front of the home folks with 4 no decisions.
LA answers with Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
He rolls in here off a 9-1 shellacking at Milwaukee where he lasted 2/3 innings allowing 5 runs on 4 hits with 3 walks.
That was about as bad as his only appearance against these Giants back at Dodger stadium on June 13th.
Were talking 4 2/3 innings allowing 5 runs on 6 hits in the 6-2 loss.
Bottom line: he isn't beating Robbie Ray today.
Roll with the home team ace this afternoon.
