Colorado at Washington

Colorado looks to pull off the sweep of the Nats here to pull a bit closer to .500 at the break. It's the first time since 2008 that the Rockies will enter the break below .500. The problem this year has been offense, or lack of it. On the road, Colorado is averaging just 3.4 runs per game. Over their last seven games, they are barely at 3.0 per game. Washington similarly lacks offensive power (3.8 runs per game on the season). Jordan Zimmermann goes for Washington and he's been very good of late. He owns a 2.82 ERA overall which has shrunk to 1.71 over his last three starts. He's walked just three batters and allowed no home runs over that span, while allowing just 4 earned runs in 21 innings. Both of these bullpens are very good. On the road, Colorado's pen has a 3.17 ERA. At home, Washington's is very stingy (2.63 ERA). Since last season, the Rockies are 40-21 UNDER on the road vs. good bullpens (under 3.75 ERA). They are also 13-3 UNDER over that span on the road vs. good NL pitchers like Zimmermann (under 1.200 WHIP). Finally, Colorado is 14-5 UNDER this season after scoring 4 runs or less for four straight games. The UNDER is the play here.
