Lincecum is a shadow of his former self, with location and velocity a long way off what it was in his heyday; he has the experience though, which means he can sometimes put together a strong performance, but he's just as likely to get shelled.
The opposite is Julio Teheran, who has all the precocious talent, but is still making his way in the bigs and is a little rough around the edges, so you get one hit ball against the Pirates, followed by a rough time in his last game against the Padres.
I'm going to bet this on emotion though. I'm not a huge fan of 'revenge' games in football or baseball, but if any of you saw last night's blown save, you'll know it was a tough go for the Giants; Romo was throwing some evil back door sliders, but not getting any love at home plate. I think San Francisco will be coming to play.
In Timmy we trust.
Pick: San Francisco Giants @ 2.5
38 - 41 (-2.35)
