Texas Rangers vs. Colorado Rockies Prediction
I’m on the Rockies in this game. I just think that the Rockies are in the better position here as Rocker’s issues on the road have been well documented going back to last season and I think they could plague him once again here at a hitter’s haven like Coors Field. The Rangers almost completed the comeback on Monday but I think on Tuesday they’ll fall short once again. Give me Colorado.
