Rockies ran into a hot Mets team that got solid pitching. They were able to break out of their 25 inning scoreless streak and I think they will carry that into Cincinatti where former major leaguer (2006) relief pitcher Justin Lehr will take the mound. The 31 year old has a 3.37ERA with a 13-3 record in AAA and the way the Reds pitching has been of late it really can't hurt. Unfortunately for the Reds they will have to face Aaron Cook who has been briliant on the road this year with a 3.41 ERA, but in his last 5 road starts he has a 1.29 ERA.

Cook has a career ERA of 3.13 against the Reds, but they are struggling pretty bad as of late and I feel confidently that Cook will throw another gem on the road. After all the Reds are hitting just .250 and scoring 3.95 runs per 9 innings at home against RHP. The Reds are 8-21 in their last 29 games as under dog and 1-8 in their last 9 vs. RH starter. Like I said they have struggled big time particularly against RHP.

Rockies are 14-3 in their last 17 vs. RH starter and I do not think they'll need much here off Lehr.
