Dodgers vs Giants Betting Pick
This game will be played at Oracle Park at 10:15 PM ET on Friday, June 10, 2022.
Why Bet The Dodgers:
✅ Walker Buehler will take the mound for the Dodgers, and the 27-year-old righty desperately needs a bounce-back performance. Buehler has allowed a whopping nine earned runs on 12 hits in his previous two starts and 8.1 frames of work. He’s too good to struggle for too long. The two-time All-Star holds a 4-0 record and a sparkling 1.67 ERA in four starts away from home this season.
✅ The Giants’ offense has slowed down over the last couple of weeks, tallying a .217/.296/.390 slash line. The current San Francisco lineup has only 25 hits and a .660 OPS in 104 at-bats against Walker Buehler.

✅ San Francisco’s bullpen is having a disappointing season, sporting a 4.43 ERA and 3.78 Fip while punching out only 7.76 per nine innings. Over the last ten days, it has registered a lackluster 4.14 ERA, 4.20 FIP, and 1.22 HR/9.
Los Angeles Dodgers
Thursday’s games are excluded from the analysis, and the 36-20 LA Dodgers were looking to clinch a three-game interleague series against the Chicago White Sox on the road. After a 4-0 defeat in Tuesday’s opener, the Blue Crew outlasted the Chi Sox 4-1 in the middle contest last Wednesday.
The Dodgers have dropped six of their previous nine games, still topping the NL West ahead of the 35-22 San Diego Padres. Their offense has slashed .257/.315/.449 in that nine-game stretch, while the Dodgers’ pitching staff has compiled a 3.43 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and .226 batting average against.
San Francisco Giants
The Giants hosted the Colorado Rockies on Thursday afternoon, hoping to secure a victory in a three-game series. They suffered a 5-3 defeat in the opener and bounced back with a 2-1 ten-inning victory in Game 2.
San Francisco hasn’t announced who’ll get the starting call Friday. The Jints can opt for a bullpen day or give Jakob Junis a nod. Junis is 3-1 with a strong 2.51 ERA and 0.93 WHIP in six starts and two relief appearances (43 innings) in 2022. The 29-year-old righty has yielded just a couple of earned runs in his previous two starts and 10.1 innings of work.
