Colorado plays hosts to Arizona today and enjoys a scheduling advantage as Arizona played in San Francisco yesterday and has to travel to the altitude today. This is Game 7 of the road trip for Arizona while Colorado was home over the weekend. Yesterday’s win by Colorado is the kind of win that starts streaks. Colorado blew a 5-1 lead yesterday and rallied with 2 in the bottom of the ninth to win the game. Jon Gray goes for Colorado and in his last start went 7 innings allowing 3 runs and had a strikeout to walk ratio of 7-1. Note that over the last 5 years in Baseball, National League home teams where the line is +125 to -125 and allow 5 runs or more on the season when facing a Pitcher with an ERA of 2.00 or less in his last 3 starts are 39-17. That’s a 69.6% winning angle over the last 5 years that Colorado fits today. Colorado is also 22-6 the L28 after scoring and allowing 6 runs or more 3 straight games. On the flip side Arizona the last 2 seasons is just 14-26 after allowing 4 runs or less 3 straight games. My numbers have Colorado winning 6-4.
