AAA's 10* SIDE OF THE WEEK (OFF SWEEP!)
(MLB) Detroit vs. Colorado,
Money Line: -162.00 Colorado (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* SIDE OF THE WEEK on the Colorado Rockies (8:40 EST).

We think that Antonio Senzatela and the hard hitting home side could/should easily be much larger favs in this particular matchup.

Jordan Zimmermann: He's 7-11 with a 6.11 ERA. Zimmermann most recently was rocked for seven runs off nine hits with zero K's over five innings in a loss to the Yanks on Wednesday. He's now been shelled for exactly seven runs in each of his last three trips to the hill (note that Zimmermann is just 2-6 witha 5.75 ERA on the road.)

Senzatela: He's 10-4 with a 4.52 ERA. Senzatela gave up two runs off nine hits with one walk over five innings in a no-decision against the Royals on Wednesday. Note that he's been decent at Coors Field this year, going 8-2 with a respectable 4.67 ERA.

The bottom line: Note that Detroit is just 25-40 (-11.3 units) this year on the road, while Colorado is 38-25 (+7.8 units) at home. We think Zimmermann continues to struggle and gets destroyed in the thin air of Colorado. Play on the ROCKIES.
