Tyler Stephenson of the Reds had a solid series in late April at the plate against the Colorado Rockies. He had a hit in each game, along with two doubles and two runs. In fact he has a hitting streak of ten games against the Colorado Rockies dating back to 2023. This includes when he had four home runs in one series against the Rockies in 2024. Take Stephenson to continue his hot streak against the Rockies.
Brady Singer is 0-5 with a 6.75 ERA in nine road starts. He’s had issues with left-dominated orders, and Colorado will have six, including three of its top four. The Rockies’ offense has been hitting but not scoring due to a lack of the clutch hit. In July the team’s home OPS is .998, its OPS vs. right-handers at .845. Those splits are far higher than those of the Reds. Rockies prospect Gabriel Hughes threw six quality innings vs. the Dodgers in his first start, this after a three-inning, zero-run relief spot vs. the Giants. He’s backed by a bullpen that’s actually delivering (2.13 ERA in July).
