The Colorado Rockies and Houston Astros meet Tuesday in MLB action at Daikin Park. Here’s an Astros vs. Rockies Prediction. This article will include an Astros vs. Rockies Pick.
The Colorado Rockies are 6-10 on the year and play the Padres and Dodgers next. The Colorado Rockies are batting .237 on the season and have a .299 OBP, and a .375 slugging percentage. The Colorado Rockies pitching staff has a 4.27 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP. TJ Rumfield leads the Colorado Rockies with 16 hits and 8 RBI while Ezequiel Tovar and Hunter Goodman have combined for 29 hits and 11 RBI.
Michael Lorenzen gets the ball for the Colorado Rockies, and he is 1-1 with an 8.36 ERA and 10 strikeouts this season. Lorenzen is 1-3 with a 5.74 ERA and 17 strikeouts in his career against the Houston Astros.
The Houston Astros are 6-11 on the year and play the Guardians and Cardinals next. The Houston Astros are batting .272 on the season and have a .364 OBP, and a .441 slugging percentage. The Houston Astros pitching staff has a 6.50 ERA and a 1.71 WHIP. Jose Altuve leads the Houston Astros with 19 hits and 6 RBI, while Cam Smith and Yordan Alvarez have combined for 35 hits and 22 RBI.
Colton Gordon gets the ball for the Houston Astros, and he was 6-4 with a 5.34 ERA and 72 strikeouts last season. This will be Gordon’s second career game against the Colorado Rockies.
I don’t want to get behind the Rockies as much as the next guy, especially with Lorenzen on the mound. Lorenzen has been awful through 14 innings with an 8.36 ERA and 2.14 WHIP. The Astros should be favored at home, being the better team. However, the Astros have head and shoulders the best pitching staff in baseball. Maybe Gordon turns things around, as he hasn’t pished yet and can’t be linked to this disaster. Still, I’m not getting behind the Astros with these terrible arms. It’s rocks or pass. There are much better options out there, folks.
