Like the value the Brewers bring to PNC Park this Thursday evening, as they take on division-rival Pittsburgh.

Milwaukee has dropped 3 of their last 5, but Pittsburgh is just 3-6 over their last 9 games, so look for the division-leaders to step up their game tonight in the Steel City behind Wade Miley.

Miley returns from his second stint on the disabled list as he makes just his third start of the season. He is 2-2 for his career with a 3.79 ERA in his 7 starts against Pittsburgh.

Jameson Taillon has been pitching well of late, but I simply cannot overlook the fact he is 1-4 with a 3.70 ERA in his 8 career starts against the Brewers. That includes a loss and a no-decision this season.

Brewers to take the series opener on Thursday.

Jack’s Free Pick Thursday: Colorado Rockies +102

The Colorado Rockies ended a 9-game home losing streak to the Diamondbacks with an emphatic 19-2 victory yesterday. I look for them to take Game 3 and the series today as the Rockies inch closer to the first-place Diamondbacks in the NL West standings.

Kyle Freeland has been the best starter for the Rockies this season. He has gone 8-6 with a 3.18 ERA and 1.205 WHIP in 18 starts this season, including 5-2 with a 2.89 ERA and 1.168 WHIP in seven home starts, very impressive numbers at Coors Field.

Robbie Ray has battled injury this season and just hasn’t been himself for Arizona. He is 3-1 with a 5.23 ERA and 1.488 WHIP in nine starts this season. He has given up 10 earned runs, 18 base runners and 5 homers in 9 1/3 innings in his last two starts against the Padres and Cardinals.

Ray is also just 3-3 with a 5.74 ERA and 1.650 WHIP in 10 career starts against Colorado. He gave up 7 runs, 10 base runners and 3 homers in 5 innings in his lone start against the Rockies this season. The Rockies are 5-1 in Freeland’s last six home starts. Colorado is 6-0 in its last six games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Bet the Rockies Thursday.
