St. Louis at Colorado

The hopes of a post-season appearance have long since disappeared for the Colorado Rockies, but nothing breathes life into a team more than making life miserable for someone going to the post-season. The Cards are tied atop the NL Central with 13 to play, so the odds are always tainted as the public likes teams that are in a pennant race. Lance Lynn has not won any of his last seven starts where he is 0-5, and his ERA has swollen to well over four. His last win was all the way back to August 4, and he is just 3-9 in his last 12 decisions. Colorado has been their usual self at home, where they stand 10 games over .500 and have swept their last five games as a dog of +100 to +150 here. Big obstacle for the Cards in a tight race, play on Colorado.
