Colorado at Cincinnati

Troy Tulowitzki makes a huge difference in the Rockies lineup. He missed a lot of time a year ago, and the Rockies lineup and win column felt the pain. His two-run homer in the eighth inning last night was a difference maker, and the Rockies have a chance to win a road series for the first time in over a month, and have the feel good to get it done. Brandon Phillips will miss tonight's game, and has sat out the series. And, like Tulowitzki, his lack of presence in the Reds lineup is felt. Johnny Cueto is off to a good start, but his career 4.05 ERA vs. the Rockies will present a challenge. The Reds are having trouble closing out series of late at 1-4 in their last series Game Three contests. I like the Rockies.
