The Colorado Rockies own a NL-worst 13-25 record on the road this season.
With the Chicago Cubs having a massive starting pitching advantage, my Rockies vs. Cubs prediction and MLB picks are banking on Colorado's road woes continuing on Monday, June 15
Who will win Rockies vs Cubs today: Chicago Cubs -1.5 (-105)
The Chicago Cubs rank fifth in OBP and tied for ninth in runs. They should have success against Michael Lorenzen, who owns a 7.54 ERA, 1.90 WHIP, and ranks in the first percentile in Pitcher Run Value.
While Lorenzen slowed the Cubs in his last start, his xERA was nearly five runs lower than his average. He’s unlikely to replicate that performance.
It’ll be tough for the Colorado Rockies to score on Shota Imanaga, who has allowed two or fewer in four of five against teams outside the Top-15 in OBP vs. lefties.
Play the Cubs run line to -115.
COVERS INTEL: Lorenzen has allowed hard contact 42% of the time, the highest of any projected starter on Monday.
Rockies vs Cubs Over/Under pick: Under 9.5 (-120)
Excluding the most recent series against the Athletics, which was played in an extreme hitter-friendly park, the Rockies have a .299 wOBA and .115 ISO on the road vs. lefties this season.
They have also struck out more than 26% of the time, which is a recipe for trouble against Imanaga. He ranks in the 96th percentile in chase rate and could be in for a ceiling performance in strikeouts.
The Cubs will score against Lorenzen, but 7+ runs may be needed to push this one Over the total.
I’d play the Under 9.5 to -130.
