Game 2 of the Marlins and Rockies three-game set was rained out on Tuesday, meaning a doubleheader is now on deck for Wednesday. First pitch is scheduled for 3:10pm ET as Colorado looks to string back-to-back wins together for the first time since early May.

The Rockies took the first game of the series on Monday night 7-1, but oddsmakers are expecting a much closer game on Wednesday afternoon.

The game opened as a pick’em, while the total currently sits at 11. The hitter friendly confines of Coors Field in Denver, CO will contest the matchup, with more rain and 59 degree temperatures in the forecast.

Miami vs Colorado Starting Pitchers

The Rockies will give the ball to Antonio Senzatela, who’s making his first start since an IL stint for a back issue. Prior to the injury he’d been shaky at best, allowing seven hits and five runs to the Giants in his last full outing. He’s failed to make it out of the fifth inning in four of seven starts, and has yielded a .387 average to enemy hitters.

On the bright side, Senzatela is one of the few Colorado pitchers that has performed better at home this season than on the road. No ballpark in baseball is less forgiving than Coors Field, yet Senzatela has a tidy 2.14 ERA at home, compared to a 10.38 mark on the road.

As of Wednesday morning at 10:15am ET, the Marlins have yet to name a starter.

Marlins vs Rockies Betting Analysis

Both of these teams are extreme longshots in the MLB divisional odds. It’s true that Colorado is having trouble stringing wins together, but Miami is having difficulties simply finding a victory. The Marlins were 7-19 in the month of May, and have gone 10 straight games without scoring more than four runs.

Their lineup has been especially cold over the past seven days. Miami is batting just .202 during that stretch, boasting a slugging percentage and OPS that is 47 and 56 points lower respectively than their season averages.

The Rockies’ bats meanwhile, check in ranked seventh in runs per game, and top-11 in slugging thanks to some ridiculous home-road splits. Colorado averages 5.8 runs at Coors Field per outing, compared to only 3 runs per road tilt.

They’re slugging .449 with an .800 OPS at home, which blows their .344 slugging percentage and .645 road OPS out of the water.

The Rockies currently occupy the NL West cellar at 20-24, but own the National League’s second most victories at home with 15.

Marlins vs Rockies Pick

Colorado’s home prowess has been on full display against Miami over the past few seasons as the Rockies have taken each of the last nine meetings at Coors Field. They’ve outscored the Marlins 83-34 during that stretch, crossing the plate at least 11 times in five of those contests.

Another double-digit outburst Wednesday afternoon is asking a lot. But, given how well they swing the bats at home combined with Miami’s struggles, makes the Rockies moneyline a prudent play.

Pick: Colorado Rockies Moneyline (-108)
