It's going to be 76° at Coors Field tonight with winds blowing out to left-center field at 9 miles an hour with only a two percent chance of precipitation. The Rockies haven't beaten the Padres in four tries this year, but they scored their first runs of the season against the Padres in a 13-9 defeat. Stephen Kolec makes his second start of the year after beating the Pirates 4-0 on May 4th. Colorado is sending Bradley Blalock to the mound for his third start of the year. The Rockies lost his first two starts with him allowing nine combined runs. The Rockies are 6-32 and have lost seven straight. Padres run-line.

What does low-hanging fruit taste like? Have you ever stopped to ponder? My guess is it tastes like an ice cold Coors Light these days if you just keep pounding the Rockies on the RL. They are 1-9 on RL in last 10 at home and 2-9 on the RL vs the NL West. Friars got a little too cute last night with a massive lead and don't think they stop swinging the bats here. Rockies running out a kid starter with a 6.49 career ERA.
