EARLY "TOTAL" DOMINATION >>> TRIUMPHANT 85-57 w/ ALL MLB YTD
(MLB) Colorado vs. San Francisco,
Total: 7.50 | -103.00 Under
Result: Win
The set-up: The first two games of this series have gone well "under" the number, but I think the finale sets up as more of a "slug-fest." The Rockies won the first game 2-0, while San Fran won 4-2 yesterday. The visitors go with German Marquez tonight, while the home side goes with Jeff Samardzija.

The pitchers: Marquez (7-3, 4.32 ERA) is 1-3 with a 4.75 ERA in six starts vs. the Giants (despite pitching a one-hit shutout vs. them on April 14th.)

Samardzija (4-6, 4.23) is 5-6 with a 3.71 ERA in 18 games vs. the Rockies.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Colorado has already seen the total go over the number in 12 of 18 this year as a favorite in the -125 to -175 range, while San Fran has seen the total eclipse the posted number in 27 of its last 47 vs. right-handed starters. This number is a little low.
