San Francisco Giants DFS SPIN
J.D. Davis went 2-for-4 and clubbed his 15th home run of the season as the Giants rallied to beat the Angels on Monday night. Davis walloped a game-tying 431-foot blast off of Patrick Sandoval in the seventh inning that tied the game at 2-2. He also singled and drew a walk in the ballgame. With his two-hit attack, the 30-year-old is now hitting .259/.338/.435 to go with the aforementioned 15 long balls and 56 RBI.
Los Angeles Angels DFS SPIN
Shohei Ohtani went 2-for-4 with a double, run scored and a stolen base as the Angels fell to the Giants on Monday evening in Los Angeles. The 29-year-old superstar singled and swiped second base in the opening inning, but the Angels were unable to cash him in. He then led off the sixth inning with a double and scored the Halos’ first run on an RBI single off the bat of C.J. Cron. With his two-hit effort, Ohtani is now slashing a ridiculous .308/.409/.673 to go with 40 homers, 82 RBI and 15 stolen bases.

Giants vs. Angels MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Giolito has made two starts for the Angels and both went poorly. He gave up nine runs on eight hits – three of them home runs – while walking three in 3 2/3 innings of a 12-5 loss to the Braves last Wednesday. He’s now 6-8 with a 4.36 ERA on the year and he’s 1-1 with 3.18 ERA in two career starts against the Giants. Alexander, meanwhile, is 6-1 with a 3.21 ERA on Tuesday in even career relief appearances against the Angels and is 1-0 with a 2.00 ERA and a save. I’m going to bank on Giolito’s struggles continuing and I’m going to take the Giants.
