Col +146 over SD
S. Kim/Lawrence
This is a rematch of my original quizzical pick back on 8/27. Sunny Kim pitched against Lawrence and the Rocks won 4-2.

The Rockies won 4 straight before getting beat tonight 4-2 so they have been doing relatively well. The pitcher matchup is another story. Col has won all 5 games Kim has started this year. Lawrence, on the other hand is 7-14 and the Padres have only won twice in his last 10 starts.

I don't mean to knitpick here, but Colorado acquired Sunny Kim on August 5th. He has started 3 games for the Rox and they did win them all. Having said that, I'm with you 100% on the Rockies tonight! And it's always nice to have MAXXX in our corner.

Thanks for bringing this up Squeeze. Kim had 2 starts with the Nationals earlier in the year which the Nationals won. Add that to the 3 starts for the Rocks and his teams have won all 5 of his starts this year.

Well this is the 3rd pick of mine in a row to go into extra innings only to lose. SD wins 3-2.

My record is 5-4 but easily could have been 8-1.

ITS HARD TO PICK WINNERS ON A REGULAR BASIS, BUT THESE PLAYS ALL HAD GREAT SHOTS, KEEP AT IT QL!!!
