Stephen Nover's Underdog Game of the Week
(MLB) San Diego vs. Colorado,
Money Line: 107.00 Colorado (Home)
Result: Loss
The Rockies are deserving of more respect than being a home 'dog to a team as bad as the Padres.



Colorado is far more dangerous at Coors Field where it has scored seven or more runs in six of its last 11 home games.



San Diego is 3-7 in its last 10 games and also has lost seven of the past 10 times to the Rockies at Coors.



Padres starter Andrew Cashner has regressed this season. He's been at his worst away from Petco Park with a 2-6 road mark and 4.37 ERA. Cashner isn't in good form either with a 5.09 ERA during his past three starts.



Cashner has won just once in his last six starts. The righty is 1-3 with a 5.91 ERA in 10 career appearances versus Colorado. The Rockies have won six of their last eight home games against right-handers.



The Rockies are starting their prize pitching prospect, Jonathan Gray. This will be his third big league start. Opposing batters are hitting just .162 against him.
