Home opener for the Rockies, and the Atlanta Braves are completely overmatched. Due to a hot start to the season, the Braves are receiving too much credit here and I expected this line would be much closer to -180. In McCarthy's last three starts against this Rockies team, he has struggled not picking up a win in any of those outings. German Marquez on the other hand getting the nod for the Rockies, is coming off a very successful season at Coors field and will take advantage of these Braves batters who have never faced off against him.
I'm on the Rockies this afternoon in their home opener in chilly Denver.
