This is a 10* ASSASSIN on the Colorado Rockies.

San Diego is 20-15 and the Rockies are now 17-16 after yesterday's 4-3 victory.

I love the Rockies to keep the pressure on here and to find a way to get the job done at the end of the afternoon.

In fact, if the Rockies do win this game, then they're suddenly back into the Playoff picture, so to say this is a big game contest for the home side would be an understatement.

Chris Paddack enters Coors Field struggling as well for the Friars, as twice in his last three outings he's given up six runs.

Catellani has been a pleasant surprise for the Rockies though, allowing eight runs with 14 K's over 20 1/3's innings of work so far this season.

I think San Diego has a target on its back after the early attention it got this Spring. Look for Colorado to continue to build momentum.

Great value, the play is the Rockies.

Good luck, NP
