The set-up: Kyle Freeland makes his first start back in the big leagues after a stint in the minors for the Rockies and I think he'll make the most of it. Freeland went 17-7 with a 2.85 ERA last year. The visitors hand the ball to Tanner Roark.

The pitchers: Roark (5-6, 3.51 ERA) had a "dud" of a performance in his final start before the break, giving up three home runs to the Brewers.

Freeland (2-6, 7.13) struggled in May, going 0-2 with a 10.17 ERA over six starts.

The pick: I'll call the starters a "wash," but note that the Reds are still a poor 9-19 on the road this season as a road dog in the +100 to +150 range, while the Rockies are 14-4 (+8.3 units) this year as a home favorite in the -125 to -175 range. Lay the very reasonable price.

10* COACH'S CORNER Rockies.
