The Giants have several good trends going for them in this game. First is the fact that ace Tim Lincecum will be on the mound. After a slow start to the season, Lincecum has flashed his Cy Young form striking out 48 batters in his last 36 innings.

AccuScore has trended very strongly with Lincecum going 5-2 in his games with side value picks (side values are a system taking teams when our simulations favor a team more than the Las Vegas winning percentage).

The Mets have strong trends associated with them as well. While side value picks has gone .500 when New York is the road underdog, they have been correct in Livan Hernandez's last five starts for a +346 ROI.

AccuScore has also gone 8-3 when the Giants are the home favorite. Combine that with the fact they have won 2/3 of their games at home and that gives several compelling reasons to back the Giants.
