San Francisco Giants DFS SPIN
Wilmer Flores went 2-for-3 with two homers and five RBIs on Tuesday, leading the Giants to an 11-10 win over the Reds. Flores tagged Reds’ starter Luke Weaver twice in Tuesday’s showdown against the Reds. The first one was a solo bomb smacked 404 feet over the left field fence. His second homer went a smidge further at 407 feet and tied the game at four runs a piece in the third inning. While he doesn’t play every day, most Giants players do not; he has been productive when he does come to the plate. The 31-year-old .292/.348/.520 across 228 plate appearances this season.
Cincinnati Reds DFS SPIN
Christian Encarnacion-Strand went 2-for-3 with a homer and three RBI in an 11-10 loss to the Giants on Tuesday. To no one’s surprise, Encarnacion-Strand’s first major league hit was a homer, and this ball was crushed. It had an exit velocity of 105.8 MPH and flew 426 feet. In the seventh inning, he singled to right field but had to head back to the bench when Jonathan India grounded into a double play. The Reds have plenty of mouths to feed, which could limit his playing time but, Encarnacion-Strand should be picked up even in the shallowest of fantasy leagues.

Giants vs. Reds MLB BETTING PREDICTION
The Giants have won seven straight while the Reds have dropped six straight. So take San Francisco, right? The problem is Ross Stripling hasn’t won in a Giants uniform. He’ll be making his ninth start and 14th appearance of the season and has posted a 6.11 ERA for his efforts. On the other side, Graham Ashcraft is 4-7 with a 5.95 ERA so backing the struggling Reds doesn’t make a ton of sense, either. Thus, I’m taking the over. The number is high at 10.5, but given the pitching matchup, these two teams should be able to get over that hump.
