The Giants showed some sort of life this week, but the bottom line is they’re still a bad team until proven otherwise and Mahle has a 5.18 ERA and 1.49 WHIP through 41.2 innings. Civale has been much sharper through 41.2 innings with a 2.59 ERA and 1.39 WHIP. The Athletics have the offense to add to Mahle’s struggles and it’s about time they start taking advantage of home field. I’m going to back the A’s at home.
