WILL ROGERS MLB D-E-M-O-L-I-T-I-O-N
(MLB) Colorado vs. Miami,
Money Line: -148.00 Colorado (Away)
Result: Win
The set-up: The Rockies dominated the Marlins from "the get go" on Thursday, eventually winning 6-3. I expect a similar lop-sided beatdown here as well.

The pitchers: The Rockies' turn to German Marquez, who had 230 K's last season and who had a 2.95 road ERA. He was 14-11 with a 3.77 ERA overall last year, but would post a 2.61 ERA after the All Star break.

The Marlins' counter with Trevor Richards, who went 4-9 with a 4.42 ERA as a rookie last year and who should be much improved this season after a strong spring.

The pick: The Rockies David Dahl went 3 for 4 with two runs scored on Thursday, while short-stop Trevor Story went yard (Story hit 88 long-balls over the last two years.) I believe the visitors have major advantages both on the mound and at the plate. Lay it.
