The Rockies are trying to get to 19 games over .500 for the first time this season. The offense will have to be better than they were yesterday for that to happen, as Jason Marquis has had some struggles in his past couple of outings. Still, I like the Rox in this one.
VS.
Troy Tulowitzki and Ian Stewart will be out of the lineup tonight. Both guys' backs are acting up. As a result, we get Garrett Atkins as our clean up hitter. Yay.
