8:40 PM EST. We’re not going to go into a lot of details here regarding the pitchers because it matters not when playing at Coors Field. We are going to commit to playing the underdog all season long at Coors Field on the ALTERNATIVE run line. What that means is that we are playing all of Colorado’s home games this season and we’ll be playing the underdog in each game, whether it’s the Rocks or the opposition and we’ll be playing it regardless of who’s pitching. We’re suggesting that this wager has nothing but big profits in store. With totals being in the 10 to 12½ range daily at this venue, far more games are decided by two runs or more than one run and the underdog wins just as much as the favorite. The pitching matchups rarely matter because even the best get rocked at this park. We’ll keep a running record on this angle all season long:

Here are the pitching notes on today's two starters:

Jonathan Gray (RHP) comes into this start by tossing dominant starts in each of his last two. The opposing Angels are averaging 5.9 runs per game on the road where they have a strong .789 OPS. Gray has allowed 13 earned runs in 16 innings at home this season, but was good there last season where he had a 3.13 ERA in eight starts.

Andrew Heaney (LHP) owns a poor 5.31 ERA and 1.38 WHIP through four starts this season, but a closer look reveals some decent skills. His 3.47 xERA, 10.6 K’s/9 and good command suggest that better times are ahead. Today may not be those better times, as he travels to hitter friendly Coors Field but we’ll see. Regardless, put him high on our radar.

Year to date: 6-6 +15.80 Units
