Trevor McDonald has been up and down this season for the Giants. He did fare well in his lone start against the Diamondbacks, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits in 6.1 innings on May 27.
Zac Gallen is struggling this season. He’s allowed 14 ER in 10.2 innings across his last two starts, but nine of those runs did come against the Twins. Last start wasn’t as bad as he completed 6.2 innings against the Rays. He pitched six two-run innings against the Giants on May 18.

Giants vs. Diamondbacks Best MLB Prop Bets
Diamondbacks Best MLB Prop Bet
- Ketel Marte OVER 1.5 Bases (-107)
Ketel Marte came through for us last night on this prop at a +111 price, and I still like him tonight at -107.
The second baseman has now hit a home run in four straight games and five of his last six. That might be the better play at +413, or at least worth a sprinkle along with this safer angle.
Giants vs. Diamondbacks Prediction and Pick
The only way I can look in this game is to the OVER.
Both starting pitchers have been unreliable this season, and there have been 19 runs through two games in this series.
I would lean to the Diamondbacks if you want to bet a side, but it’s a stronger play on the OVER.
Pick: OVER 9.5 (-105)

Ohio: 116 School Districts Now Allow Armed Employees
Ohio: 116 School Districts Now Allow Armed Employees

Four years after Gov. Mike DeWine (R) signed legislation allowing school boards to choose to allow teachers and other employees to be armed, 116 school districts have chosen to allow armed employees for classroom defense.
WOWO reported that the figure of “116 school districts” is derived from state data “as of June 17.”
The Ohio Capital Journal noted that the 116 districts include “more than 70 Ohio school districts and 15 Christian schools…[with] staff members who are authorized to carry weapons on school grounds.”
Ohio Federation of Teachers President Melissa Cropper criticized the training requirements for the growing number of armed school employees, saying, “It’s not a sufficient amount of training. We’re talking about highly intense situations that require a lot of not only tactical training on how to use weapons, but how to deal with making split-second decisions.”
She did not provide an instance where an armed teacher or employee has harmed someone since the law was signed by DeWine.
Antwerp district superintendent Marty Miller explained that his district chose to arm teachers and employees because they are in a rural setting with a longer police response time.
He said, “It’s just letting the public know that your children are protected.”
