I like going against guys who are just coming back. Gerritt Cole hasn't made a start since July 4th and now he'll be facing one of the hottest teams in baseball.

Alex Wood is looking good right now. His last 4 starts he only gave up 5ERs (Oak,Wash,@Seat, @LAD).

I believe we have the better pitcher in Wood. Plus the Braves are scoring runs right now and should be able to take advantage of a rusty Gerritt Cole.

Braves +113

Give me the Rockies with Jorge at home. I don't care how hot KC is right now. Jorge at home this year is 8-2 with a 3.30era & .235oppBA.

Duffy is not himself right now. Last 2 starts 12in, 9h, 6r, 3bb & 5Ks. He was pulled after only 70+ pitches his last start, which makes me think that there may be a problem. Either way, I still like the Rockies in this one.

Rockies+110

In my view, this is a great situational spot to play the Giants as a small road favourite tonight against the Cubs, especially what occured in last nights game. The Giants lost in a rain-shortened match up that lasted the minimum of just 4.5 innings. I like the Giants to respond in a big way tonight.

Jake Peavy will toe the rubber for the Giants and has struggled this season with a 2-12 record and 5.72 ERA over 24 starts. However, Peavy had a solid outing last time out after allowing just 1 ER in 7 IP against the White Sox and since joint the Giants has pitched to a 3.86 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 4 trips to the mound. He has also dominated the Cubs in 15 career starts against them, sporting a stingy 2.78 ERA and 1.19 WHIP.

Chicago will send Edwin Jackson to the mound tonight and he has been one of the worst starters in the Majors this year. Jackson is 6-13 with a 5.68 ERA and 1.57 WHIP over 25 starts, whilst opposing hitters have hit a staggering .300 off him in 13 ‘Night’ starts. The Cubs are 8-17 in games that jackson has started and are 2-6 in his last 8 outings.

San Francisco Giants - 128

STRIKE POINT SPORTS (MLB)

GAME OF THE YEAR
8-Unit Play. Take #910 Los Angeles Dodgers (NL) (-145) over San Diego (10:10 p.m. Wednesday, August 20)
Eric Stults is one of the worst pitchers on the road in baseball with a record of 1-9 and a 5.11 ERA in 14 starts away from Petco Park. He has allowed just 3 runs over his last two road starts but that was against the light hitting Cardinals and the Pirates without Andrerw McCutcheon. I think Stults is going to have his hands full with the Dodgers line up. The Dodgers are 20-10 in games that opposing teams start a left handed pitcher this season (best in the majors) and I think they will take advantage of Stults who is 1-4 with a 3.96 ERA in 6 contests against his first big league club. Carl Crawford is finding his stroke for the Los Angeles as he is 16-32 with 6 RBI’s and 8 runs scored over his last nine games and he is 5-10 off Stults in his career. Roberto Hernandez will be on the bump for the Dodgers making his home debut for his new club after pitching well in his first two starts on the road allowing just 3 runs over 12 innings to the Brewers and Braves. The Dodgers are 5-0 in their last 5 home games versus a left handed starter while the Padres are 1-4 in their last 5 road games versus a right handed starter and they are 1-7 the last 8 times they faced the Dodgers in L.A.
