Can Detroit Really Cruise to an Easy Win in Game 1, or Is a Shocking Upset Brewing?
The Rockies are playing surprisingly terrible to this point in the season. No one in their right mind expected the Rockies to be good this season, but certainly people had to think they would be better than this, right? We are in May and the Rockies still don’t have double-digit victories for the season. We are in MAY. Colorado hasn’t won a series yet, and they’ve won two games in a row just once – it happened April 30th and May 1st. They’ve always been bad on the road, but their home record usually is around .500. Not this year at 4-12. Since April 24th, the Rockies have allowed six or more runs in 10 of 13 games. They’ve scored three or fewer runs in eight of those 13 contests. This is a brutally bad team. Kyle Freeland takes the hill today. He has had some success at Coors Field in the past, but not this year. This year he has an 8.53 ERA in three starts allowing 12 earned runs in 12.2 innings. It may not be a huge sample size, but there really isn’t one outlier game, he’s allowing runs in all three of those starts. There aren’t many hitters with experience against him, with three Tigers totaling 18 at-bats, and Glyber Torres having all three hits in five chances.ÂÂ
