OC Dooley

2 Unit Colorado Rockies +130

On paper this game is a mismatch as Los Angeles goes with their #2 starting pitcher up against a Colorado hurler whose last start came way back in the month of May. Despite the Rockies spending the better part of a month losing on a nightly basis the money-line for this contest has actually DROPPED substantially from the opening offshore figure which saw the Dodgers as a much steeper road favorite (-160). To make a long story short due to injuries Franklin Morales (last start 5/31) is being given a second shot at as a member of a Colorado rotation that desperately needs a veteran arm to stop the bleeding. The entire Rockies roster has special MOTIVATION as the last time they faced the Dodgers (6/18) resulted in Clayton Kershaw tossing a no-hitter which essentially was a “perfect game”. Most reading this analysis are aware that the THIN AIR and high altitude of Denver has adverse effects on visiting pitchers. Despite his excellent statistics Zack Greinke has actually struggled at Colorado allowing a hefty 12 earned runs in the most recent 17.1 innings tossed at Coors Field. It was a stunning National TV verdict last night as the Cubs ended up sweeping a series at Boston in front of the ESPN cameras. As of this typing a Thursday late afternoon MLB Network national telecast saw heavy underdog St. Louis leading early by a 5-1 count in San Francisco and I feel we could be looking at another upset on the same network this evening
