At nearly +170 odds, I like the value of a wager on the Rockies ML and will also be betting the total to go over nine runs scored.

Toronto's SP, Yariel Rodriguez, is making his MLB debut, but he's not expected to go deep in today's game. That's great news for Rockies bettors, as the Blue Jays' bullpen has been horrendous. It allowed ten hits and six runs yesterday, raising its ERA to 5.60 (28th). Bowden Francis is expected to follow Rodriguez (12 runs (four home runs) in 8.0 IP before being demoted to the pen).

Colorado tallied 12 runs yesterday on a season-high 20 hits. I expect more of the same for the Rockies' bats today, winning straight-up and pushing the total over nine!
