(MLB) San Francisco vs. Colorado,
Money Line: -120.00 Colorado (Home)
Result: Win
Money Line: -120.00 Colorado (Home)
Result: Win
The set-up: The Rockies held on for the victory last night and I think the home side will once again find a way to deliver the goods on Tuesday. The Giants go with Chris Stratton on the mound this evening, while Colorado goes with Antonio Senzatela.
The pitchers: Stratton is so far 8-5 with a 4.45 ERA. Stratton most recently allowed five runs off eight hits while striking out three in a no-decision to these very Rockies on Thursday. Note that in two starts against Colorado this year he's allowed nine runs over nine innings of work.
Senzatela is so far 2-1 with a 6.23 ERA. With Jon Gray optioned on Saturday, Senzatela has been called up to make this start. Over 17.1 innings of relief he has a poor 6.23 ERA, but his 4.18 FIP is serviceable.
The pick: Let's face it, neither of these starting pitchers has been very good of late. Take it for what you will though, but San Fran is already just 26-29 (-2.4 units) in all "night" games this year, while Colorado is 31-23 (+8.2 units) in all "night" games this season. As mentioned above, I think the Rockies build off their Monday night win. Play on Colorado.
