Colorado's been on decent run of late winning four of six. But, I like the visiting Diamondbacks here. Miguel Batista has a winning 5-3 record on the road and backing him up is a bullpen with a 3.83 road ERA. Arizona scores 4.9 per game on the road vs. 4.8 for Colorado at home. Home favorites of up to -150 with a starting pitcher whose ERA is 3.70 or better facing a opponent with a starting pitcher with an ERA of 4.70 to 5.20 are just 18-41 (30%) over the last 5 seasons. And Colorado doesn't fare well against high scoring teams. They are 4-14 in the second half of this season vs. teams scoring 4.8+ runs per game. Jason Jennings, over the past three seasons is 0-12 in that situation! Road dog here.
