When you look at the stats that say the Rockies are 1-7 in Jimenez' eight starts, makes it tough to unload on the Rockies. That is until you look a bit deeper and see that he has allowed three runs or less in seven of the eight! The problem is that the Rockies have had trouble offensively, and have only produced three runs a game for him. Nick Blackburn has done a respectable job for the Twins, but the opponents have averaged 5+ a game in his starts. This looks like the place Jimenez could put together another solid outing and cash in, as the Rockies should have the edge to mount just enough offense to turn those L’s into a W here. This looks like a 5-3 type game for the Rockies and we will also ride the under.
