Rockies Ruin Pre-Break Momentum

To no surprise, the MLB playoff odds don’t exactly have much faith in the 43-53 Colorado Rockies playing October baseball. They have dropped four in a row, which destroyed any sort of progress made when the team went 8-2 in the 10-game stretch before the break and ripped off five straight wins.

Playing half their games in Colorado has helped the Rockies string together an above-average lineup. Colorado sits seventh in runs and second in batting average, though its average at home (.287) is far better than on the road (.234).

The Rockies struggle to pitch in any atmosphere, however, ranking 28th in ERA and WHIP and allowing the highest opposing batting average in baseball.

Kyle Freeland hopes to prevent the sweep in Monday’s series finale. The lefty carries a 4.96 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with 69 strikeouts in 101.2 innings.

Brewers Barreling the Baseball

Milwaukee has made good on the MLB picks in its favor thanks to an offense that’s hitting its stride. With 25 runs in their last three games, the Brewers rank ninth in runs and slugging percentage, though their batting average is still just 21st.

Meanwhile, their ERA and WHIP are 13th and 14th, respectively, while their batting average against is good enough for ninth in MLB.

Aaron Ashby will be tasked with delivering the knockout blow on Monday. Another lefty, Ashby is far from the aces he’s surrounded with on the Milwaukee staff. He has a 4.57 ERA and 1.49 WHIP with 83 punchouts in 69.0 innings.

Rockies vs Brewers Prediction

In the battle of lefty pitchers with unsightly ERAs, the MLB lines favor the Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers are pegged at -185 while the Rockies are considerable underdogs at +165.

There’s a chance we could see some runs flying for this series finale. The over/under is slotted at 8½ according to the latest odds.

There’s a possibility to bet on the run line. While the Brewers are big moneyline favorites, they’re even money to win by two or more runs.

After assessing the latest scores and odds, there’s actually some good logic in rolling with Colorado.

First, the Brewers have won two of the three games by a single run, so it’s not as if it’s a blowout each time. Second, Milwaukee is a miserable 27-48 against the spread in games in which it’s favored while Colorado is 42-31 as runline underdogs.

Throw in the fact that Freeland is over 1.5 runs better on the road than at home, and the Rockies make for a good upset pick. You can bet the runline or moneyline, but we recommend getting the most bang for your buck and taking Colorado to pull off the outright win.
