Colorado has turned things around on a 6-1 run, including 5-1 in their last six road games. That's what happens when you have a strong offense that can carry a club for a stretch and the Rockies are seventh in baseball in runs scored, sixth in on base percentage and third in slugging. They face a Cubs squad that is 30th in runs scored, 29th in OBP and 25th in slugging while hitting .240 as a team (26th). It's hard to believe Chris Volstad (0-9, 6.88 ERA) is getting this much respect from oddsmakers with the Cubs 1-12 in Volstad's last 13 starts! The Cubs are 7-19 in their last 26 overall, 7-21 in their last 28 games against a right-handed starter.  And when these teams meet the Rockies are 8-3 in the last 11 meetings. Play the Rockies.
