Trends
Colorado is 25-58 in their last 83 road games and 3-9 in their last 12 games overall while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 Saturday games. Seattle is 4-1 in their last 5 games against the NL West and 5-11 in their last 16 games overall while the over is 8-3 in their last 11 games against the NL West.
Pick
I’m rolling with the over here. Ryan Feltner is a fringe starter at best for the Rockies and I don’t expect him to hang in the rotation for long. George Kirby’s the better starter by a fair margin here, but he hasn’t looked great early on and I think there will be some runs in this game. Give me the over here.
