It’s kind of weird to be a week and a half into May and realize that the San Francisco Giants haven’t faced the Colorado Rockies or Arizona Diamondbacks. They’ve faced the San Diego Padres for just one three-game series, and the Los Angeles Dodgers for just a two-game set.
The Giants have played the Washington Nationals more than the NL West this season.
But now the Giants get to host the Rockies, who sport one of the more surprising records of the young season. A surprising record that’s primed for regression, I would note, given their still-quite-bad run differential.
