Not sure about the line movement on this one other than the “perception” of what Zimmerman HAS done. But we look further, and we see he’s flat out been hit by the Marlins. In 2 starts this season vs the fish, Zimmerman has allowed hitters to bat .368 & his ERA is upwards of 7. On the opposite side, Eovaldi is no Cy Young. He’s 0-3 with a 6.6 ERA since June 23rd. Add to that the fact that OVER has ca$hed 43 out of 65 times in night games for the Marlins and we’ll take a stab here with + money. There is always the chance this goes to 7, and if you all can wait till closer to gametime, it’s worth the wait. If the line does move back to +100 on the OVER or gets juiced a little to the OVER…get down. If not, wait to see if this moves to 7. Either way, I see enough runs scoring tonight to ca$h this!

The Pittsburgh Pirates blew a perfect opportunity to make up ground last weekend at Colorado. Meanwhile, the San Francisco Giants are still asking "what just happened" after the Dodgers swept them and took away first place in the NL West. Tonight the two struggling teams hook up, with the Giants as -165 favorites behind ace Madison Bumgarner.
The Pirates had a golden opportunity to make a move in the NL Central over the weekend, but instead got slapped around by the last-place Rockies at Coors Field, losing two of three. They were outscored 16-2 combined in Friday and Saturday's games against a Rockies staff that has a 4.98 ERA, the worst in baseball. After salvaging Sunday's getaway game, the Bucs have now dropped eight of their last 11 games on the road.
The Giants went into the pivotal Dodgers series with the back end of their rotation, but come strong tonight with Bumgarner (12-7, 3.19 ERA), who has won his past three starts after losing the previous three. However, he's had a rough time at home this season, going 4-5 with a 5.22 ERA in 10 starts. Plus, he's 1-2 in three career starts against the Pirates.
The Pirates come with Vance Worley (3-1, 3.10), who has been serviceable for the Pirates. He beat the Dodgers last Tuesday, ending the Pirates' three-game slide behind him. In his career with Philadelphia, he was 2-1 with a 4.09 ERA against the Giants.
The Pirates present a good opportunity with plus-money tonight, but the better play looks to be OVER 6.5 runs. Bumgarner has gone OVER in five of his last six starts and Worley has gone OVER in all three of his starts against the Giants and his last three starts overall.
