In 673 games, McCutchen hit 92 home runs and stole 92 bases, with a career line of .304/.394/.498 at his old stomping ground. I’m expecting a good return for the now Giant’s veteran right fielder.
The Pirates are currently tied for second place in the NL Central, only a 1/2 game behind the Cardinals. This is the Giants first opponent in the central division, and the Pirates second in the western division.
Last season, the Giants bested the Pirates 5-1 in games faced against each other, including a three-game road sweep at the end of June. The Giants will look to get their road trip back on track in another three game set.
