It won’t be as often as when he was on the San Diego Padres, but Bud Black and the Colorado Rockies must prepare for the Soto challenge once again.</p><p>When that matchup does come, Black knows exactly what to expect. But he <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5985812/2024/12/11/juan-soto-ted-williams-765-million-future-mets/" rel="noopener">also knows it’ll be difficult</a> to truly stop Soto’s offensive prowess, via Jayson Stark of The Athletic.</p><p>“When you use the words, plate discipline, that encompasses a lot of things,” Black said. “But for me, it’s how he conducts the at-bat, where it’s patience, but yet you sense that he’s ready to hit. It’s sort of an instinctual thing. It’s an intangible that I think pitchers feel, and catchers feel. And the opposing manager. And the opposing pitching coach.”</p><p>“There’s just something about the at-bat when it’s him up there,” Black continued. “It doesn’t matter, it’s the same, whether it’s 7:05 pm, hitting in the first inning, or at 9:30, hitting in the ninth. There’s not a difference in the quality of the at-bat.”</p><p>Soto’s lone season with the New York Yankees saw him hit .288 with 41 home runs and 109 RBI. He earned his fourth-straight All-Star appearance. Soto also drew 129 walks and scored and American League leading 128 runs.</p><p>No one on the Rockies had a batting average over .270 in 2024. No one had more than 26 home runs or 78 RBI – both of which were accomplished by Ezequiel Tovar. Tovar also led the team in runs (83) while Ryan McMahon had the team lead in walks (69). Both still well below Soto’s numbers.</p><p>Colorado finished the 2024 campaign ranked 19th in the league with 682 runs scored. Add Soto’s 128 to the mix and the Rockies jump to fourth in the league with 810 runs scored.</p><p>Of course, that is all a pipe dream. Rockies ownership seems unlikely to ever <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-juan-soto-765-million-contract-intriguing-family-perk">hit that $765 million Soto earned</a> on one player. Still, Bud Black can admired from afar and hope his hitters learn a thing or two from Juan Soto’s approach at the plate.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The good news is that the Rockies’ farm system is rapidly improving, although they may not yet reap the benefits in 2025.</p><p>Thus, it looks as though all the Rockies can pull off this offseason are fringe moves to at least bolster the team’s depth. To that end, the Rockies <a href="https://x.com/Feinsand/status/1866573564997927161" rel="noopener">struck an agreement</a> with former San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees infielder Thairo Estrada, signing him to a Major League deal, as per Mark Feinsand of MLB.com.</p><p>Estrada mostly plays second base, and throughout his career, he has shown that he is a top-tier defender at the keystone. The 28-year-old infielder should be a huge upgrade defensively over Brendan Rodgers, the man who played 132 games for the Rockies at second base in 2024.</p><p>The huge question mark surrounding Estrada is his bat. In 2024, he was as close to a quick out as it can get for a big-league regular. In 96 games (381 plate appearances), Estrada <a href="https://www.fangraphs.com/players/thairo-estrada/16426/stats?position=2B" rel="noopener">slashed .217/.247./.383</a> — struggling from all facets at the plate. But the Rockies are banking on a bit of a return to form for Estrada.</p><p>Back <a href="https://www.statmuse.com/mlb/ask/thairo-estrada-ops-from-2022-to-2023" rel="noopener">in 2022 and 2023</a>, Estrada hit 28 home runs and drove in 111 runs on an OPS of .727 — which is found money considering his elite defense at second base. The Rockies are expected to start Estrada at the position in 2025, rising to the top of the depth chart barring another middle infield signing for Colorado.</p><h2><b>Rockies expected to bring the rear in the NL West yet again in 2025</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Ezequiel-Tovar.jpg"><figcaption>Rick Osentoski-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>It is downright unfortunate that the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-colorado-confirms-bud-black-return-9th-season">Rockies are residing</a> in perhaps the most competitive division in the MLB. It should not be a surprise if they finish at the bottom of the NL West once more, especially when the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres, Arizona Diamondbacks, and Giants all have their sights set on making it to the postseason.</p><p>Last year, the Padres posed a major challenge to the Dodgers in the playoffs. The Diamondbacks missed the playoffs by a hair. And the Giants, fed up with how they’re losing ground to their NL West peers, made the blockbuster signing of shortstop Willy Adames in this year’s free agency. Meanwhile, the Rockies signed Thairo Estrada, a solid, if unspectacular, second baseman whom they’re hoping would have a major bounce back next season. That about says it all.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He showcased his versatility by playing second base, shortstop, third base, one game at first, and even pitching in three mop-up appearances. His season was interrupted by a strained right shoulder, which kept him out from July 10 to August 9.</p><p>Last season with the Twins, Farmer hit .262 with a .751 OPS in 118 plate appearances against left-handed pitchers. In contrast, his performance against right-handers saw a significant drop, with a .167 batting average and a .545 OPS.

The Twins acquired him in November 2022 in a trade for right-hander Casey Legumina.</p><p>Farmer has consistently showcased his defensive versatility, playing at least ten games at second base, third base, and shortstop in each of his two years with Minnesota. While he has yet to take the field in center, right, or behind the plate, he has proven dependable in any role, earning four outs above average last season and 16 OAA throughout his MLB tenure.</p><p>Kyle Farmer primarily played a backup role in 2024, behind Carlos Correa, and finished the season with a .214/.293/.353 slash line, hitting five home runs and driving in 25 RBIs across 242 plate appearances in 107 games. With the Rockies, he is expected to fill a similar role, backing up <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-rockies-ezequiel-tovar-national-league-history-huge-2024-honor">23-year-old Ezequiel Tovar</a>.</p><p>The Rockies also made several moves leading up to Friday’s non-tender deadline, opting not to offer contracts to pitcher Cal Quantrill and infielder Brendan Rodgers. In this context, Farmer could serve as a solid replacement for Rodgers.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The agreement, announced Wednesday, brings back Stallings after he declined his portion of a<a href="https://x.com/Feinsand/status/1859320049716064386" rel="noopener"> mutual option</a> for 2025 earlier this month.</p><p>“Jacob Stallings gets one year and $2 million from the Rockies, per source. The deal includes a $2 million mutual option for 2026 with a $500,000 buyout.” via Mark Feinsand on X.</p><p>Stallings, 34, produced steady numbers behind the plate for the Rockies in 2024, slashing <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/rockies-jacob-stallings-re-ups-with-colorado/" rel="noopener">.263/.357/.453</a> with nine home runs over 82 games. His balanced offensive contributions and veteran leadership made him a valuable presence on a young Colorado roster. By re-signing Stallings, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-rockies-ezequiel-tovar-national-league-history-huge-2024-honor">Rockies are ensuring stability at a key position</a> while also maintaining flexibility for the future.</p><h2><b>Jacob Stallings returns to the Rockies in 2025</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Jacob-Stallings.jpg"><figcaption>Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Stallings’ return offers the Rockies a reliable veteran to guide their pitching staff and mentor their younger catchers. This includes Drew Romo, a top prospect expected to play a more prominent role in 2025. Stallings’ ability to manage a pitching staff has made him a respected figure in the clubhouse, a crucial element for a team looking to rebuild and compete in the rugged NL West.</p><p>While Stallings is likely to split catching duties with Romo, the Rockies also have options in Hunter Goodman, a promising prospect who could see time at catcher or elsewhere on the field. This mix of youth and experience behind the plate should provide <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-colorado-confirms-bud-black-return-9th-season">manager Bud Black with flexibility in shaping his lineup and managing workloads</a> throughout the season.</p><p>Stallings has carved out a reputation as one of the more dependable defensive catchers in the league, earning a Gold Glove in 2021. Though his defensive metrics have declined slightly in recent years, he remains an above-average option behind the plate, particularly in handling pitchers and framing pitches. Offensively, his .453 slugging percentage in 2024 was one of the best marks of his career, adding a surprising level of pop to his game.</p><p>The mutual option for 2026 ensures that both Stallings and the Rockies retain flexibility moving forward. Should Stallings continue to perform at a high level, the deal provides Colorado with an affordable option to keep him on the roster.</p><p>For the Rockies, re-signing Stallings signals a commitment to steadying the team’s foundation as they develop younger talent. With Stallings anchoring the catching corps, Colorado is better positioned to navigate the challenges of the upcoming season while building for the future. His return is not just a move for the present—it’s an investment in the growth of the Rockies’ young core.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

This achievement was announced through the Rockies’ official X page.</p><p>“Ezequiel Tovar is the youngest Gold Glove shortstop in National League history.”</p><p>At just 23 years and 60 days old, Tovar has demonstrated exceptional defensive skills throughout the 2024 season. His efforts were quantified by an 11.2 ultimate zone rating, leading all major league shortstops and showcasing how many runs he saved with his defensive prowess. This accomplishment highlights his individual talent and marks a significant milestone for the Rockies, as Tovar becomes the second-youngest player in franchise history to receive this honor, following Nolan Arenado, who won in 2013.</p><p>Tovar’s journey to this accolade was marked by consistency and excellence. He concluded the season with a .988 fielding percentage, ranking second among MLB shortstops, and became the second shortstop in Rockies history to win a Gold Glove. His fielding stats include handling <a href="https://www.denverpost.com/2024/11/03/ezequiel-tovar-wins-gold-glove-award-rockies/" rel="noopener">675 total chances</a> with minimal errors, underscoring his reliability and skill at a crucial defensive position.</p><h2><b>Rockies stud shortstop wins gold in 2024</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Ezequiel-Tovar.jpg"><figcaption>Rick Osentoski-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>“His everyday work ethic is outstanding and his great defensive instincts show up every game. There is not a play he can’t make,” Rockies manager Bud Black said, praising Tovar’s commitment and instinct. This high praise from a seasoned manager highlights Tovar’s integral role on the team and his impact on games.</p><p>Beyond his Gold Glove Award, Tovar’s defensive statistics over the past two seasons have been nothing short of remarkable. He <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mets-news-francisco-lindor-gold-glove-finalist-snub">leads MLB shortstops in total chances, assists, and double plays</a>, with an outs above average ranking that places him among the elite at his position.</p><p>The Rockies have shown their faith in Tovar’s long-term potential by securing him with a seven-year extension earlier this year, which includes a club option for 2031. This contract reflects the organization’s belief in his abilities and his role as a cornerstone player for the team’s future.</p><p>Joining Tovar in Gold Glove honors from the Rockies this year is center fielder Brenton Doyle, marking a significant achievement for the team with multiple players recognized for their defensive excellence in the same season.</p><p>As the Rockies build on their defensive strengths, Tovar’s historic win not only elevates his profile but also signifies a promising future for the team as they continue to cultivate talent capable of competing at the highest levels.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They fired him midway through the 2015 season.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-3-early-free-agent-targets-in-2024-mlb-offseason">The Rockies</a> also announced that bullpen coach Reid Cornelius and assistant hitting coach PJ Pilittere will not return next season.</p><h2><b>Bud Black will lead the Rockies’ youth movement</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Bud-Black.jpg"><figcaption>Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Rockies’ decision to bring their manager back despite consecutive 100-loss seasons signals exactly what Schmidt said in his statement: that ownership believes Black is the one to continue leading a rebuild.</p><p>12 players made their Major League debuts for Colorado this season, a club record. Its two most productive hitters by bWAR, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-breakout-star-joins-exclusive-club-larry-walker-babe-ruth">Brenton Doyle</a> and Ezequiel Tovar, are both second-year players. Tovar led the team with 26 home runs while Doyle hit 20 of his own, and 25-year-old first baseman Michael Toglia hit 25 as well. That provides some hope to a Rockies offense that had trouble scoring almost all year.</p><p>The pitching staff wasn’t much better, but also holds some reasons for optimism. The Rockies had a 5.47 team ERA — by far the worst in the Majors. They do, however, have a <a href="https://www.mlb.com/rockies/news/bud-black-signs-extension-to-manage-rockies-in-2025" rel="noopener">stable of young arms</a> that could develop into productive relievers. Victor Vodnik, Angel Chivilli, Luis Peralta, Jeff Criswell, Jaden Hill and Seth Halvorsen are all 25 years or younger.</p><p>With Charlie Blackmon retiring and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-charlie-blackmon-retirement-14-year-career">Kris Bryant unable to stay on the field</a>, look for Colorado to bring in another veteran or two to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-colorado-ryan-mcmahon-trade-plan-stern-update">join Ryan McMahon</a> in helping guide a young roster through a 2025 season that must show improvement if Black is to stick around even longer.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Find out how to watch Dodgers Rockies.</p><p>The Los Angeles Dodgers enter the final day of the 2024 MLB regular season with the No. 1 seed in the National League safely tucked away. The Philadelphia Phillies lost a pair of games to the Washington Nationals, a clear indication they did not see the top seed as a prize to be pursued. One can’t blame the Phils for their logic, because most people would agree that the No. 2 seed offers a better path. The No. 2 seed does not have to play the San Diego Padres — the very dangerous No. 4 seed — in the National League Division Series. The Phillies will take their chances with the No. 6 seed or the No. 3 Milwaukee Brewers, a good team but not a team with the high-end star power of the Padres.</p><p>At any rate, the Dodgers have exactly nothing to play for in this game. They might want to give some backups more work, and they have already declared that they will go with a bullpen by committee approach for the game instead of burning a starting pitcher. The Dodgers should use at least six pitchers, possibly more, in this game so that no individual pitcher gets overextended and various bullpen arms all get one inning of work before getting the next several days off.</p><h2><b>Dodgers-Rockies Projected Starters </b></h2><p><b>TBD </b>vs. <b>Ryan Feltner</b></p><p>The Dodgers are going with a series of relievers in this game.</p><p><b>Ryan Feltner</b> (3-10) has a 4.66 ERA. Feltner started the season very poorly but has stabilized in the second half of the 2024 campaign. Delivering an ERA under 4.7 is respectable for a Coors Field pitcher. One wonders what he could achieve if he didn’t pitch all his home games in Denver over the course of a full season.</p><p>Last Start: Tuesday, September 24 versus the St Louis Cardinals: 6 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 1 HR, 1 BB, 6 K</p><p>2024 Home Splits: 14 starts, 71 2/3 IP, 87 H, 47 R, 11 HR, 20 BB, 62 K</p><p><b><i>Here are the Dodgers-Rockies <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB Odds</a>, courtesy of FanDuel. </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Dodgers-Rockies Odds</b></h2><p>Los Angeles Dodgers: -1.5 (no price listed)</p><p>Moneyline: no price listed</p><p>Colorado Rockies: +1.5 (no price listed)</p><p>Moneyline: no price listed</p><p>Over: 11 (no price listed)</p><p>Under: 11 (no price listed)</p><h2><b>How to Watch Dodgers vs. Rockies </b></h2><p>Time: 3:10 p.m. ET/12:10 p.m. PT</p><p>TV: SportsNet LA (Dodgers) / MLB (Rockies) / MLB Extra Innings</p><p>Stream: fuboTV <b>(<a href="https://www.fubo.tv/stream/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">Free trial</a>)</b></p><h2><b>Why The Dodgers Will Cover The Spread/Win</b></h2><p>The Dodgers did not need to win on Friday or Saturday, but they did.

They are batting .285 with a .386 on-base percentage over their past ten games, averaging 8.4 runs/nine. The Dodgers’ pitching situation was a concern on Friday night, but they persevered and are in a much better position in this game.

Senzatela hasn’t been pitching deep into games, and Colorado could be in trouble if that continues.</p><h2><b>Why The Rockies Will Cover The Spread/Win</b></h2><p>We’ll be careful of backing the Rockies too hard since they showed no signs of a fight on Friday night. However, there comes a point where the Dodgers could sit their stars to rest and ensure no injuries for the postseason. The Phillies’ loss on Friday could accelerate that process for the Dodgers and give Colorado a chance in this game.</p><h2><b>Final Dodgers-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>It didn’t seem like the Dodgers would be able to handle the Rockies as well as they did on Friday night. However, we shouldn’t underestimate Colorado’s ability to lose a game. The Dodgers had barely any motivation and were without Freddie Freeman, but still put up 11 runs for an 11-4 victory. It won’t get any easier in this game, as Senzatela hasn’t been performing that well since returning and is on a limited pitch count.

The Dodgers are firmly in first in the National League West but do have the motivation to try to clinch the first seed in the entire league. The Rockies have been out of the playoff picture for most of the season, sitting 34 games back of the Dodgers with the second-worst record in the National League. The Dodgers have won seven of ten games against the Rockies this season, but the Dodgers have managed to get two of the past five. The Dodgers have also won seven of their past ten overall, while the Rockies have lost six of their last ten. It’s time to continue our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> with a Dodgers-Rockies prediction and pick.</p><h2><b>Dodgers-Rockies Projected Starters </b></h2><p><b>TBD</b> vs. <b>Cal Quantrill</b></p><p>The Dodgers haven’t announced an official starter for this game, as Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the only starter in their rotation with enough rest to pitch. The Dodgers could save Yamamoto for the postseason because this game doesn’t have much meaning.</p><p><b>Cal Quantrill</b> is 8-10 with a 4.72 ERA and a 1.49 WHIP.</p><p>Quantrill’s last start was on the road against the Dodgers, which the Rockies won 6-3. He pitched 4 2/3 innings with five strikeouts. He allowed six hits, four walks, three earned runs, and one home run.</p><p>Quantrill is 4-4 at home with a 4.37 ERA and a 1.56 WHIP.</p><p><b><i>Here are the <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB Odds</a>, courtesy of FanDuel. </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Dodgers-Rockies Odds</b></h2><p>Los Angeles Dodgers: -1.5 (-135)</p><p>Moneyline: -185</p><p>Colorado Rockies: +1.5 (+115)</p><p>Moneyline: +155</p><p>Over: 11.5 (-115)</p><p>Under: 11.5 (-105)</p><h2><b>How to Watch Dodgers vs. Rockies</b></h2><p>Time: 8:10 PM ET/5:10 PM PT</p><p>TV: SNLA, COLR</p><p>Stream: fuboTV (<a href="https://www.fubo.tv/stream/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">Free Trial</a>)</p><h2><b>Why The Dodgers Will Cover The Spread/Win</b></h2><p>The Dodgers offense is hitting their stride at the right time which is a welcome sight for fans who have seen too many postseason heartbreaks. They are batting .282 with a .381 on-base percentage over their last ten games, averaging 7.9 runs/nine. The Dodgers pitching situation is concerning, but it may not matter.</p><p>The Rockies bullpen has been a disaster all season, but they’ve been particularly bad over the past three outings. They have an 8.07 ERA and the team allowed 20 runs over three games against an abysmal St. Louis Cardinals offense.</p><h2><b>Why The Rockies Will Cover The Spread/Win</b></h2><p>The Dodgers are playing their starting pitching situation close to the vest for this game. It makes sense, as the next meaningful game the Dodgers will play will be in the playoff’s first game. They are trying to line up their starters to avoid getting upset in the postseason like they did last year against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Dodgers aren’t going to roll out many of their good players, and already have Freddie Freeman gone for the duration of this series. The Rockies could steal a couple of wins against a Dodgers team lacking motivation on this road trip.</p><h2><b>Final Dodgers-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Who knows what will happen in this game? There is plenty of uncertainty with the Dodgers, as they could be resting players and haven’t announced a starting pitcher yet. The Rockies are just trying to play out the rest of their schedule and get to the offseason after another disappointing season in Colorado. Take this game to feature not much offense as both teams limp to the finish line.</p><p><b>Final Dodgers-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick: Under 11.5 (-105)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He studied journalism and communication at UConn.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">MLB</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>It has been a rough few years for Kris Bryant since he signed a long-term deal with the Colorado Rockies, specifically on the injury front related to his back, and he <a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/kris-bryant-determined-to-overcome-back-issues" rel="noopener">did not hold back</a> when talking about how he is dealing with everything related to that.</p><p>“I’m not doing too good,” Kris Bryant said, via Thomas Harding of MLB.com. “I’m trying my hardest.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-kris-bryant-dealing-harsh-2024-reality">Bryant is still going through</a> the process of recovering and is doing everything he can to get back healthy <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-news-charlie-blackmon-retirement-14-year-career">for the Rockies</a>. Still, his honest admission is an example of how hard it can be for players to go through injuries in their careers. Bryant was a star on the Chicago Cubs and was a huge reason they won the World Series in 2016. Bryant has done great things in his career, but he wants to continue that in this chapter with the Rockies.</p><p>“I totally turned the page on that [Cubs] chapter of my life,” Bryant said, via Harding. “I want to have a new and better one here. I’m always striving for better things. … There are many nights where I sit there, crying myself to sleep. It sucks, sitting here, watching games, knowing I can’t contribute in any way. I guess I can contribute by talking. I’m struggling really bad with this, and I can’t wait to get back out there.”</p><h2><b>Kris Bryant’s struggles with the Rockies</b></h2><p>As mentioned before, Bryant spent many years with the Cubs, and was a star player there. He got called up in 2015 and immediately made an impact. He was a huge part of the team winning in 2016, and those first three seasons of his career are still clearly the best he has had to this date.</p><p>Bryant remained a valued member of the Cubs until the trade deadline in 2021, when he was dealt to the San Francisco Giants. The following offseason, Bryant signed with the Rockies on a lucrative deal. Expectations were high, especially going to a hitter-friendly ballpart. In 2022, Bryant performed well when he was on the field, but the problem was that he only played 42 games. The following season, Bryant struggled in 80 games, and 2024 was a similar story, as he struggled in just 37 games played.</p><p>Hopefully, Bryant will be able to recover from this back issue and be able to have a resurgent season in 2024. He is still under contract with the Rockies for four more seasons.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Along with that, Fedde has allowed just five runs, which gives him an ERA of 2.87. Fedde was pitching well with the Chicago White Sox before being traded, so we know what he is capable of. If Fedde can be that good pitcher, the Cardinals will win this game.</p><p>Gomber is a hittable pitcher, especially when playing at Coors field. Teams are batting .281 off him at Coors field, and he has allowed 16 home runs in his 13 starts. The Cardinals have a great chance to do some real damage in this game. With Gomber being a very hittable pitcher, and opposing teams hitting the ball hard off him, the Cardinals should be able to put up runs, and win this game.</p><h2><b>Why The Rockies Will Cover The Spread/Win</b></h2><p>The Rockies need Gomber to have a good start if they want to win this game. Both teams have been eliminated from the playoffs for a while, but that does not mean these players are going to take any pitches off. That includes Gomber. Gomber’s last start was a rough one, but his previous two were good. In those two starts, Gomber has allowed just three runs in 14 innings pitched against two pretty good teams. That is how Gomber needs to pitch in this game. If he can go five or six strong innings, the Rockies will be able to win this game.</p><p>Colorado has won six of their last 10 games, so they are playing pretty well. In those 10 games, the Rockies are batting .237, but they have scored 51 runs. That is more than enough runs to win games. In fact, when the Rockies score five or more runs in a game this season, they have a record of 39-21. Along with that, the Rockies are 36-39 at home with a .267 batting average, and .770 OPS. Colorado is a better team at home, and they need that to show in this game.</p><h2><b>Final Cardinals-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>This game comes down to which pitcher I trust more to do their job. For me, that is Erick Fedde. I will take the Cardinals to win this game straight up.</p><p><b>Final Cardinals-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick: Cardinals ML (-126)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They won’t be making the Postseason this year and after having several chances to close the gap within the divisional race, they’ll be coming up short for the third consecutive season. Their year was plagued with injuries and they continue to be without key role players within their lineup to end the season. Still, they’ve won five of their last seven games and without the added pressure of making the Postseason, they’ve been playing well in all phases of the game.</p><p>The Cardinals will send Michael McGreevy to the mound for just his third appearance of the season. He was called up from Triple-A just a few weeks ago after rotational starters Lance Lynn and Sonny Gray found themselves on the IL. The Cardinals have seen wins in both of his appearances and managed to give him a 10-run cushion in both games, so expect McGreevy to sustain his success if his team is able to provide him with some run support. He’s only allowed one run through 10 innings of work this year, so expect another solid start from the rookie slinger as he tries to give his team the edge in this season’s series.</p><h2><b>Why The Rockies Will Cover The Spread/Win</b></h2><p>The Colorado Rockies are currently last in the National League West and will miss the Postseason once again. It was a tough season throughout the entire year as the ball club couldn’t seem to get healthy and put together a string of solid games. Injuries to players like Kris Bryant, Brenton Doyle, and Dakota Hudson have really derailed their chances this year and they’re hoping for a smooth offseason and looking forward to another chance next year. Still, the Rockies are managing to win games during the dog days of the season and after recently beating the Los Angeles Dodgers, they’d be happy to see some of that momentum carry into this series.</p><p>The Rockies will send Ryan Feltner to the mound for his twenty-ninth start of the season. His 3-10 overall record doesn’t quite tell the whole story of his season as he’s had some success over his last few starts. He had a rough month of August where he recorded five starts with no wins to show for it, but since, the Rockies have notched wins in six of his last seven starts. In his three starts throughout September, he has yet to allow a home run and has only allowed four total runs. Expect him to put together another solid outing in this one.</p><h2><b>Final Cardinals-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Neither of these teams are playing for much at the moment, but without the added pressure of making the Postseason, it seems as though they’ve found success at this point of their schedules, winning games in a “too little, too late” sort of fashion. The Colorado Rockies have seen some clutch hitting late in games from players like Charlie Blackmon and Ryan McMahon, so don’t be surprised if they can see a spark once again in this outing.</p><p>The Cardinals, on the other hand, have been dealing with injuries to their starting rotation and they’ll be sending a fresh prospect out to the mound in this one. He’s been able to find his control through his first two appearances, so it’ll be interesting to see if he can finish this year’s campaign on a high note and place himself within the starting rotation for next year.</p><p>For our final prediction, we’ll side with the Colorado Rockies to find this win at home. They’ve been a bit more active with their bats over the last month than the Cardinals have and you must trust Ryan Feltner with the pitching matchup as he nears his 30th start of the season. Let’s roll with the Colorado Rockies to win this opening game of the series.</p><p><b>Final Cardinals-Rockies Prediction &amp; Pick: Colorado Rockies ML (-102)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
