Rockies fans will likely be hoping for an encore performance of yesterday’s 23-run effort when their team faces off with the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field in the Windy City today. Fans can follow the action on MLB.TV once the game gets underway at 8:05 p.m. EST.
The only bad thing about hitting six home runs and scoring a franchise record 23 runs is that you have to come back the next Day and do it again. It helped being at home-run-friendly Las Vegas Ballpark. These two teams met last week at Coors Field in Denver for a three-game series. Colorado took two of the three games.
Shota Imanaga will be tasked with reigning in the Colorado lineup when he starts on the mound for Chicago. Imanaga is 4-6 in 14 starts with a 4.44 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP. He lasted five innings in his start against the Rockies last week (June 10) but did not factor into the decision after holding Colorado to two hits and no runs.
Colorado starter Michael Lorenzen is 2-8 in 15 starts with a 7.54 ERA and a 1.90 WHIP. He has gone 1-3 in seven home starts with an 8.44 ERA and a .373 OBA.

Our Chicago Cubs vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
The Cubbies have not been lighting up the scoreboard of late, scoring 26 runs across their last six games while hitting .233. But facing a guy like Lorenzen may be exactly what they need. While I don’t think we’ll see a repeat performance of yesterday’s 23-run performance from the Rockies, they’ll do some damage against Imanaga. Chicago should win this game, but there is no value in the moneyline, and they haven’t been playing well enough to convince me they’ll cover. With these two pitchers on the mound, I think we’ll see a lot of offense.
Our Colorado vs. Chicago Pick: OVER 9.5
