Rockies vs Athletics Prediction

The Athletics are 5-1 in their last 6 meetings against the Rockies and have won their last three meetings at home.

In this Rockies vs Athletics Prediction, the Athletics are coming as -180 home favorites. The A’s have won both games in this series but I am not willing to lay -180 today with Springs on the mound. He has given up 4+ runs in three of his last four starts and has been weaker at home. On the flip side, Sugano has been better on the road and the A’s are second to last against righties in the last 10 days. Take the Rockies on the moneyline for a nice plus money price.
