After getting roughed up by the Astros last night in Zack Greinke’s Houston debut, the Rockies look for liftoff today to avoid being swept in the two game set. Peter Lambert will take the hill against Gerrit Cole. Cole follows two back-to-back Houston debuts and the team has only lost two of his starts this year — June 19 at Cincinnati and July 12 at Texas. He is undefeated at home this year. The Rockies finally won Peter Lambert’s last start on August 2 against the Giants at home, but after a rough July they are still trying to find their footing in August. Hopefully they can get some liftoff today and can carry that momentum into San Diego this weekend.
