Chicago at Colorado

The Rockies have left their nine-game losing streak in the rear view mirror and have now won two straight games. They have the confidence edge here vs. a Cubs team that has only found the win column once in their last eight games. The Cubs’ pitching, which has been problematic all season, has now allowed 5.8 runs a game over their last 10. The Rockies have one of the most productive home-built lineups in the league, and will get their fair share of opportunities here. Jason Berken is in for a rude awakening in taking the mound in Colorado for the first time. The Cubs are just 24-50 in their last 74 when following a setback in their previous game. The Rockies are 9-4 in their last 13 at home vs. a righthander, and have four straight wins here vs. a team that carries a less than .400 winning percentage on the road. Play on Colorado.
