Pick

Pittsburgh has really struggled over their last nine games, but they have a chance at a series win in this matchup at home. On the other side, Colorado is playing their best baseball of the season. The Rockies will start Antonio Senzatela, who allowed one earned run over 5.0 innings against the Mets in his first start. The Pirates will turn to Rich Hill, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. Rich Hill has been inconsistent this season and even though he has pitched well lately, he could blow up in any appearance. I think we are going to see a good amount of runs in this game and I am taking the over.
