Michael King is coming off a gem in Milwaukee where he struck out 10 batters in seven innings to push his K/9 rate near 10, which is about where it sits for the Rockies offense as a whole. King also had three starts with at least eight Ks in his last five starts with the Yankees last year after getting stretched out. In theory Coors Field is dangerous for opposing pitchers, but the Rockies have scored just five runs in four games since returning from their most recent road trip. Even with heavy juice, I like playing King to reach the six-K threshold in this matchup.

Love this ballpark for the San Diego offense and they have a distinct advantage in caliber of starter on the mound. Rockies haven't seen much of Michael King and that should work in his advantage and want to jump this while I can get plus money on it. Rockies starter giving up plenty of loud contact -34th % in overall run value, 7th % in breaking ball run value, 35th % in barrel rate. Slider and FB account for 75% of his pitches and the league is slugging .500 off one of them and .429 off the other
