Cincinnati Reds vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
Hughes has been respectable through 9 innings, but that’s all we’ve seen from him on the big league level. I need to see more before I can back him with confidence. Also, the Rockies stink and entered the break quietly offensively. The Reds are simply the better team, and while Singer has been up and down and awful on the road, I’m going to side with the better team finding a way to get it done. Cheap price for the Reds to fade the Rockies. Yeah, sign me up.
