PITCHING MATCHUP: Pirates RH Juan Nicasio (2-2, 4.50 ERA) vs. Rockies RH Tyler Chatwood (2-2, 3.47)
Both pitchers have been wildly inconsistent and playing in hitter-friendly Coors Field.
Nicasio is 13-9 record despite a 5.23 ERA at Coors Field while has lost both his starts at Coors Field, surrendering three homers among 17 hits and eight runs in 10 innings.
Pittsburgh is 8-0 in the last 8 meetings in Colorado but we are not so big on Nicasio despite the win-loss trend he’s been following with a loss in his last game. The Pirates are also 13-3 in the last 16 meetings.
The OVER is 6-2 in Colorado’s last eight home games, 9-2 in Pittsburgh’s last 11 road games and 13-3 in Pittsburgh’s last 16 overall.
11 is a big number but four of the last six games in this series played at Coors Field have gone OVER that number. We will be on the OVER 11 for this one.
