It is Ricky Nolasco's time for the Marlins as he faces his favorite team to take the mound against. Nolasco has dominated the Rockies over the years to the tune of a 4-0 career mark with a 2.27 ERA. The same can't be said about Jason Hammel, who is 0-2 lifetime against the Marlins and carrying a king size ERA into this one at 8.71 vs the fish. Nolasco has all the pitches working right now and the result is 42 strikeouts in his last 33 innings. To put that in perspective it took him his 11 previous starts to record that many strikeouts, so he is back and dealing. The Rockies are 3-8 in their last 11 as a road dog and just 2-8 in their last 10 behind Hammel on the road with a total from 7-8.5. I'll go with Florida in this one.
