Rockies Have Been Awful

The Rockies have been awful this season, and they picked up their 69th loss on Sunday. The Rockies scored four runs against the San Francisco Giants, but the pitching gave up five runs. The pitching gave up 13 hits, and they need to turn around the pitching here. Hunter Goodman hit a home run and drove in two RBIs.

LA Angels vs Colorado Rockies Prediction

In this game, the Rockies and Angels are both going to find success with the offense. Canning is coming off a strong start, but he still sits with an ERA of 5.04. One start isn’t enough for me to change my mind on Canning. The Angels on Sunday scored eight runs, and they can continue that success here against Quantrill. Quantrill always gives up three runs or so in his starts, and sometimes he gives up five or six. Both offenses will find success and the over is going to cash.
