Rusin was a 10-5 winner over this Miami team in his last start, going 7 innings, allowing 2 ERs and striking out 8. It was his 3rd start in 4 appearances.

Phelps was the loser in that matchup last week, going 3.2 innings and yielding 9 runs, by far his worst start of the season. He has 6 Q starts on the year but the team is 3-7 whenever he takes the mound in 2015.

Free MLB Pick

As mentioned these two starters were on the mound in a game last week and the Rockies’ starter Christopher Rusin won that battle hands down. Marlins’ starter Phelps with the disaster last week has managed just one Q start in his last four games. He returns home for this one but his 2015 stat line in home games is poor with a 1.67 WHIP and 5.50 ERA. We don’t see any statistical data that would support going against Colorado in this spot.
