The Colorado Rockies are 11-3 on the season while the Seattle Mariners are 5-11. The Rockies won Saturday's contest 5-0 and I like them to complete the sweep of this three-game series Sunday afternoon.

Colorado right-hander German Marquez (2-1, 1.89 ERA) has opened the season with three solid starts, allowing only four runs on 12 hits with 23 Ks over 19 innings of work. Seattle right-hander Justus Sheffield (0-2, 9.39 ERA) on the other hand has been roughed up for four runs in each of his first two starts, covering only three and 4 2/3 innings respectively. I do not see any reason why we shouldn't back the road chalk in this one.

8* play on Colorado Rockies.
