Baseball Betting Trends - Rockies at Giants, May 26, 2007
By Eric Williams
This pick is a near lock for MLB bettors.
The Giants are hot right now and have arguably their best pitcher on the mound tonight in veteran Matt Morris.
Rockies starter Aaron Cook has also pitched very well this season and could keep the Rockies in this game long enough for them to have a chance at winning.
Here is a look at tonight’s key trends followed by my MLB Free Pick:
Key Rockies Trends
The Rockies are 20-42 in their last 62 road games.
The Rockies are 18-38 in their last 56 road games vs. a right-handed starter.
The Rockies are 35-81 in their last 116 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Key Giants Trends
The Giants are 4-0 in their last 4 games on Grass.
The Giants are 4-0 in their last 4 overall.
The Giants are 5-1 in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a losing record.

The Under is 5-1 in Rockies last 6 vs. National League West.

The Pitchers: Rockies starting pitcher Aaron Cook is 3-1 in 10 starts covering 63.1 innings. Cook has struck out 25 and walked 20 and has a 4.55 ERA.
Giants starting pitcher Matt Morris is 5-1 in 61.1 innings. Morris has 29 strikeouts and 23 walks with an ERA of 2.93.
While Cook has pitched very well for Colorado this season, Morris has been even better for the Giants.
If the Gants can continue their timely hitting, Morris should hold the Rockies down enough for San Francisco to win this game.
