Editor's note: After a busy first half of the 2016 MLB season, Joe Peta takes a look at both the good and bad for all 30 teams to find overvalued and undervalued clubs from a betting perspective. He also projects each team's second half. This is the entry for the San Francisco Giants.

Records reflect all games played through Sunday. All statistics are through each team's 81st game. Season-to-date pricing adds the implied win probability from the money line of each team's first 81 games and converts it to 162 games.


San Francisco Giants

Vegas projection: 88.5 wins
My projection: 91 wins
Current record/pace: 57-33 (103-win pace)
Season-to-date pricing: 89.7 wins

What's gone right: In the last 100 years, the New York/San Francisco Giants have won 100 or more games only three times in a season. Having twice topped out at 103 wins (1962 and 1993), San Francisco enters the second half of the season with a legitimate chance to challenge that mark.
