Rockies vs Reds Prediction
I’m looking at the over in this spot. Greene is still working his way back into the mix with just 10.1 innings under his belt, and he has a 6.97 ERA and 1.45 WHIP in those limited frames. Feltner has a 4.55 ERA and 1.29 WHIP through 63.1 innings, and he’s had control issues. In his last 10.1 innings, Feltner has allowed 12 hits and 6 earned runs. Throw in Coors, and we should see some fireworks in this spot. Expect a lot of offense. Give me the over.
