Free MLB Pick
The historical data on today’s starters is such a small sample size that we’re going to ignore it. The St. Louis Cardinals after being on a four-game win streak have lost 3 of their last 4. Their offense has struggled recently scoring 12 runs in their last 5 games and hitting a paltry .216 in the last 7 days. In comparison the Rockies have hit an MLB leading .334 over that span with a .896 OPS. Carlos Martinez and Chad Bettis have both been outstanding in recent games with each recording 4 consecutive Q starts. That said, we have to give the edge to Bettis who is 3 for 3 in Q starts at Coors Field.
