The Rockies are back home where they are 35-21 this season, while Atlanta is 26-33 on the road. Julio Teheran has been hit hard lately, allowing 20 runs (19 earned) on 26 hits his last four starts, in only 21 innings. The Braves have lost four of Teheran's last five starts, and they have lost seven of their last eight road games overall. Chad Bettis makes his first appearance after recovering from cancer surgery. He is 12-6 at home in his career and 3-0 overall against Atlanta. Colorado has won 16 of Bettis' last 21 starts and 19 of his last 26 home starts. The Rockies are 14-2 the last 16 meetings with the Braves, including 10-1 at home. We're getting a bargain price with the home favorite. Play the Rockies.
