With Madison Bumgarner back with the big league club, the Giants are able to put the best starting rotation in all of baseball on the mound every day. With Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain both having ERAs slightly above 3.00, it is difficult for opposing batters to get a feel for what these pitchers are doing on the mound. For the entire season, the betting public has been vastly undervaluing this Giants team, but everyone must now stand up and take notice of just how good San Francisco is. They currently have three players with double digit home run totals, and Aubrey Huff leads everybody in that category with 19. Juan Uribe's 14 HR and 60 RBI also give the Giants a great contribution, and Andres Torres continues to amaze pundits with his mixture of power and contact hitting. Still, the Braves have a very good staff, and the Giants just don't have the players that score a lot of runs with their bats. This makes it easy to see why the UNDER is the free bet wager for August 6th.

Tim Hudson, Tommy Hanson, and Kris Medlen have all pitched exceptionally well so far this year and are the main reason why this game has been picked to go UNDER the total. Hudson has continued to show that age is not slowing him down any. With a 2.40 ERA and 11 wins in 21 starts, Hudson is showing young pitchers like Hanson and Medlen exactly how to get the job done on the mound. As successful as the Braves have been this season, it is surprising that guys like Melky Cabrera and Troy Glaus aren't doing any better than they are. Even though Glaus currently checks in with 14 HR, he only has a .250 average, which won't do the Braves much good in October. The lack of hitting from the majority of the Braves lineup underlies the free bet of UNDER the total when the Giants travel to Turner Field.

Bets on the sides of this game are sure to be split down the middle fairly evenly, especially with two pitchers on the mound that have proven they can get the job done over a period of time. Neither team has an overly potent lineup that they put out on the field every day, and this will not serve them well when they face an opponent who brings such great pitching to the hill. Do yourself a favor and play the free wager pick of betsfreebets.com, which is the game going UNDER the posted total.
