There isn't much left for either of these teams to play for as they both played themselves out of contention a long time ago. Colorado is 17-40 on the road, and one reason is that they have allowed 4.7 runs per game. Arizona has had no success at home where they are 24-38 on the season. They, like the Rockies, have just not been able to shut down their opponents. Arizona has allowed 5 runs per game through their 62 home games on the season, so looking at the total, there is a clear path for this one to go OVER. Colorado has played a nearly perfect 6-0-1 to the OVER on the road vs. a team with a home winning percentage below .400 in their last seven. The Snakes stand at 5-1 to the OVER in Cahill's last six starts as a home dog. The OVER owns a 12-3-1 record in the last 16 meetings, including 6-0-1 in the last seven in the desert. Only one way to go here - take the OVER.
