San Francisco Giants DFS SPIN
Brandon Belt went 2-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI, and three runs scored in the Giants win over the Brewers in extra innings on Saturday. The first blast was a solo shot off Brewers ace Brandon Woodruff in the fourth inning to tie the game at one before hitting his second long ball in the 11th of Milwaukee reliever Sal Romano to extend the Giants’ lead to 8-5 at the time. Belt is now 4-for-12 since returning from the injured list with three home runs and five RBI and could be a modest boost to fantasy lineups down the stretch.
Milwaukee Brewers DFS Spin
Willy Adames went 2-for-5 with a home run, double, and two RBI during the Brewers’ loss to the Giants on Saturday in extra innings. The 25-year-old smashed a Jarlin Garica fastball 416 feet over the center-field wall in the 10th inning for his 20th home run of the season. Adames has cooled off of late after an incredible start in Milwaukee, hitting .233 over the past week, but is still batting .260/.335/.491 on the season with 60 RBI over 381 at-bats.
Giants vs. Brewers Betting Prediction
The Giants are 6-2 in their last eight games overall, are 20-6 in their last 26 games when their opponent scored five runs or more in its previous game and are 13-5 in their last 18 games when they’re a road favorite. On the other side, the Brewers are 1-4 in their last five games as a home favorite and have dealt with a depleted roster over the past two weeks because of COVID problems.
