There's some spot value Thursday in taking the insurance run with the Rockies (+1.5, +140) in their effort to avoid a sweep at the hands of the surging Nationals. Washington ace Max Scherzer returns to the mound from the injured list because of an inflamed shoulder. It's possible he won't be at 100 percent, and he is also just 2-4 with a 4.47 ERA in nine career starts against Colorado. The Rockies still have the fifth highest-scoring offense in baseball (5.34 runs per game), and Charlie Blackmon has a .308 average with two homers against Scherzer.
