Not the Bay Bridge Series these days with the A's de-camped to Sacramento (how about the I-80 Series instead?), but Mark Kotsay has just the man he wants on the mound after his pitching staff was battered the past two night by the Dodgers, allowing a whopping 28 runs. JP Sears has allowed only six runs across 28 IP (1.93 ERA) in his last five starts, all wins by the A's, who also check the "humiliation bounce-back box" after last night's humbling 19-2 loss at Chavez Ravine. Sears will have to outduel Logan Webb, who has been the Giants' most effective starter with his 2.60 ERA, but Bob Melvin's side has also been slumping, dropping five of its last six.

DraftKings. I don't think the books have caught up to Logan Webb's strikeout metrics yet. Webb has cleared this line in seven of his eight fully stretched out starts, and in all three home starts (where he traditionally dominates). His tweaked changeup 37% whiff rate this season compared to 22% last year) has really opened up the rest of his arsenal. The Athletics are a tough matchup, but have still allowed 10 of the last 17 righties to clear this line against them. Webb's strikeout rate is in the 85th percentile, and should clear this line within six innings.

JP Sears is a guy we back a lot, especially against a lineup like this that does most of its damage vs righties. Gigantes have just a .291 OBP vs lefties and Sears is a good one. When he gets to pitch without traffic he is especially tricky. This big ballpark will be a godsend for him too compared to SacTown. The A's 13-10 on the RL on the road and the Giants 9-15 on the RL as a favorite.

Logan Webb has been the most reliable starter for the Giants, and MLB overall, for a few years now. He's taken a step forward this season, though, as his strikeout rate has increased with a new fastball and improved changeup.
