#902 ASA PLAY ON New York Mets -1.5 on the Run Line (-105) over Colorado Rockies, Sunday at 1:40 PM ET - Rockies are starting German Marquez here in his first start coming back from Tommy John surgery. His minor league rehab outings have not gone well. Marquez went 0-4 with a 7.11 ERA across 7 starts in the minors as he has prepared for his major league return. Making matters worse, Marquez has to face a Mets team that has been red hot. New York has won 5 straight games and 7 of 8. Also, the Mets hand the ball to a red hot starter here. Jose Quintana gets the call here and he has allowed a total of only 3 earned runs in 30.1 innings over his last 5 starts! Quintana will take advantage of facing a Rockies club that has lost 3 straight road games and 12 of last 15 on the road! This is nothing new for Colorado as they are annually one of the worst road teams in the majors. This season. Colorado is 13-36 on the road. Also, the Rockies are 10-27 in day games and 3-11 against NL East teams. The Mets bullpen ranks in the middle of the pack this season and Colorado is dead last for bullpen ERA. In terms of hitting, the Mets slugging percentage ranks 3rd in the NL as only the Phillies and Dodgers are better - very good company to keep! Taking a look at the Rockies on the road, their slugging percentage ranks 27th out of all 30 teams. Home blowout time. Look for the Mets to pull away as this game gets into the middle and later innings. Lay it!
