The Rockies are extremely hot at the moment with seventeen wins over their last eighteen games and even against a decent team such as the Angels in the American League, the Rockies did flatten them out last night with a one sided scoreline of 11-1 against their 2nd best pitcher Palmer who was 6-0 prior to the start. The pitching staff of the Rockies have all found their feet in the last fortnight or so and coupled by their offensive prowess, the entire ball club is doing their part in their aid to push Colorado to another post season birth.

The Angels have been pretty poor in recent times, losing the series against the Dodgers was one of the disappointments and their batters are finding a tough time contacting with the balls. Jiminez will start for the Rockies and he is 3-0 over his last four starts with 23 strikeouts. his 2.37 era in that span is marvellous, not forgetting in his last start when he did also defeat the Tampa Bay Rays. O Sullivan will start for the Angels and despite winning in his last match against the Giants, he has yet to show consistency and with the Angels offence struggling, he might have to pitch under very little run supports.

Pick: Rockies -1.5 @2.30
