Colorado Rockies vs. Athletics Prediction
I’m on the Rockies in this one. This is still a very hitter-friendly environment and Springs had issues in this ballpark already and also has an ERA over five in his home ballpark at Sutter Health this season which plays out very similar to Las Vegas. Tomoyuki Sugano has decent numbers for a pitcher at Coors Field so I think he can navigate the hitter-friendly nature of this ballpark and tame the A’s to help Colorado avoid the sweep.
