This is a 10* Interleague TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the UNDER between the Texas Rangers and the Colorado Rockies.
On the surface these two starting pitchers obviously do not strike fear into opposing line-ups, but for a number of different reasons we think this number is a little low. The Rangers are looking to avoid an 11th loss in their last 13 games and hand the ball to Matt Harrison (0-1, 13.50 ERA) who returned to action on July 8th vs. the Diamondbacks and was promptly shelled for six runs over four-plus innings in a 7-4 loss. A date at Coors Field is always a tough place for pitchers to throw in, but if history is any precedence, then Harrison has to be liking his chances today as he's won his previous two starts against Colorado while throwing 10 1/3's scoreless innings. Yesterday's high-scoring 8-7 win was just the Rockies second victory in 12 interleague games. The home side counters with Kyle Kendrick (3-10, 5.94 ERA) who has struggled for his new team this year, but who was solid in his only matchup with the Rangers, holding them to one run over seven frames in Philadelphia's 4-3 loss loss in April of 2014. These two veterans have a lot to prove, one thing we don't have to worry about is their focus coming into this one. And note, from an O/U trend based stand point, this play is about as strong as you could possibly ask for as Texas has seen the total go UNDER the number in 27 of 45 this season following a loss and in seven of 12 interleague contests, while Colorado has seen the total dip below the posted number in 20 of 36 following a victory and in 28 of 48 vs. teams with losing records. This can still be a high-scoring game and have the total fall below this sky-high number and that's exactly what we're expecting, play on the UNDER.
