Washington NationalsvsColorado Rockies

WSH 8/COL 0

MLB.TVCoors Field
The preview

Nationals at Rockies out at Coors Field, and Washington comes in the better team by a mile, sitting at 51-51 against Colorado's ugly 41-62 mark, which is exactly why Vegas has the Nats favored at -137 with an over-under of 11.5 that tells you everything about how thin the air is out there. This is the classic Coors trap game, doesn't matter who the starter is or how sharp his WHIP looks warming up, the ball carries and bullpens turn into kindling by the seventh inning.

Bet on the total going over, with at least one ball left the yard that has no business leaving any other park in the league. Bold prediction: Washington's pen coughs up a late lead and Colorado steals this one in the ninth just to be annoying.
