San Francisco Giants
After dropping two of three at Washington the Giants might be happy to be in Pittsburgh over the weekend. The are still scuffling with their bats but the Pirates are two so this series is more of an opportunity. Amazingly the Giants do not have a regular batting over .238. Buster Posey is at .196 with one RBI.

Derek Holland has been solid, leading the club in strikeouts so far. He also leads in walks and that makes the fact that he has given up a home in every game that much more problematic. This is his first game not against a division opponent so perhaps there is a little unfamiliarity advantage to be gained there.
Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pirates were also in Washington recently but they took two of three last weekend. They are scoring a little more than San Francisco and pitching better too and that has them at the top of the NL Central coming into Friday action. If they are going to keep that up they have to beat up on teams like San Francisco.

Jameson Taillon has the best stuff on the team and he is looking to build on last year’s breakthrough. So far the results have just been OK but there is no reason to fear regression. Pittsburgh is 3rd in bullpen batting average against. Closer Felipe Vazquez is dominating.
