Athletics vs Rockies Projected Starting Pitchers
Athletics vs Rockies Picks, Betting Analysis
The weather at Coors Field is going to be awful for hitting today. We’re looking at temperatures in the mid-30s for this one with potential precipitation, as well. Naturally, it’s forecasted to hit the 70s next week in Denver, which sums up the city’s weather.
The odds on Brent Rooker to go yard, though, are just too high to pass up in this spot.
Rooker is one of the best power bats in the league and may hit 50 home runs this season after moving from playing half his games in Oakland at the Coliseum. Coors is still a well-above-average one for power, and Ryan Feltner is an above-average matchup for righty power.
Even in the bad weather I have Rooker’s true odds at around +420 making this a good EV bet.
Pick: Brent Rooker Over 0.5 Home Runs (+475)
