Freeland didn’t last long in his first start of September, leaving the road game against the Texas Rangers in the second inning with what was later called a left hip impingement. Freeland has been cleared to make his normal start on Monday, and the Rockies certainly need him to flash the form he showed in August, going 4-0 with a 3.41 ERA as opponents hit just .239 against him.

One of those August wins came on August 14 in San Francisco when the southpaw limited the Giants to one run and five hits in six solid frames.

Those numbers are part of a strong second half of the season for Freeland, who has a 3.12 ERA in nine starts since the All-Star break.

Colorado Rockies vs. San Francisco Giants prediction

San Francisco is coming to Coors Field after a riveting three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. By taking two of three games from the Dodgers, San Francisco sits atop the NL West coming into Denver.

Could Monday pose a bit of a letdown for the Giants against the Rockies, a team that may be out of the playoff chase but still has plenty of games left in September against teams chasing postseason spots, including the Giants and Dodgers?

Colorado is just 4-9 against San Francisco this season. However, if Freeland can provide a strong start and Colorado can conjure up some of its Coors Field magic (where the Rockies are 45-24 this season), the Rockies have a chance to start the series with a win.
