The Cincinnati Reds and San Francisco Giants have both been struggling ahead of their three-game series.

The Giants have lost six of their last seven games, including four straight. The Reds have been a bit better, but have lost three of four after winning two of three.

The Reds took two of three from the Giants at home back in April, and will send ace Chase Burns to the hill tonight.

Here are the odds, probable pitchers, and predictions for Reds vs. Giants on Monday, Aug. 24.

Reds vs. Giants Odds, Run Line and Total

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook

Reds vs. Giants Probable Pitchers

  • Reds: Chase Burns (14-2, 2.51 ERA)
  • Giants: Carson Whisenhunt (3-4, 7.03 ERA)

Chase Burns has allowed two runs on 10 hits in 12 innings since getting roughed up for five runs in 5.1 innings by the Nationals.

Carson Whisenhunt is looking to bounce back from allowing seven runs (six earned) on nine hits in four innings against the Guardians. He had a solid start before that, yielding just one run on four hits in 4.2 innings against the Astros.

  • Date: Monday, Aug. 24
  • Time: 9:45 p.m. ET
  • Venue: Oracle Park
  • How to Watch (TV): CINR, NBCSBA, FS1
  • Reds record: 62-69
  • Giants record: 52-78

Reds vs. Giants Best MLB Prop Bets

Reds Best MLB Prop Bet

  • Chase Burns OVER 6.5 Strikeouts (-117)

Chase Burns is one of the best young strikeout pitchers in the league, and he’ll show why tonight in San Francisco. Burns racked up eight punchouts in each of his last two starts and now has at least seven strikeouts in 16 of 24 starts this season.

I don’t see the Giants being able to buck that trend tonight.

Reds vs. Giants Prediction and Pick

The Reds are in a better spot heading into tonight’s game. They were at least just in Arizona, so it’s not a long trip to San Francisco, and they took it knowing that their ace would be on the bump tonight.

On the flip side, the Giants had to come all the way back from Boston having put up 12 runs in their last four games.

I’ll take the Reds to get back on track with a win tonight.

Pick: Reds -157
