This is a 10* on OVER

You won’t find too many MLB totals higher than this one. But we’re at Coors Field where the average number of runs per game scored this season is 10.6. The Rockies average 5.9 themselves, the most by any team in their home park across all of baseball. The Braves couldn’t wait to get out of Chavez Ravine after being swept there to start the week. Something tells us that they’ll enjoy facing the Rockies much more than they did the Dodgers. It starts with going up against Chi Chi Gonzalez. With only two wins in 16 starts, it’s not been a good 2021 for the Colorado hurler. His ERA is 6.15. Gonzalez wasn’t even supposed to pitch today. Scheduled starter Jon Gray had to go on the injured list because of right forearm tightness. This comes after yesterday’s starter Kyle Freeland left in the second inning with his own injury. Gonzalez had fallen out of the rotation, making only one start in August. He allowed three runs in three innings. He’s also allowed at least one home run in 10 consecutive starts going back to May. The good news for Colorado is that they scored nine runs in a come from behind win over Texas on Wednesday afternoon. They go against Touki Toussaint. Toussaint had a good August, but has never pitched at Coors Field before. Seven of his previous nine starts had gone Over before the last one stayed Under. All three games vs. the Dodgers went Under. But it’s a much different opponent for the Braves this weekend. Play on OVER
