The Colorado Rockies are smoking hot and will go for a sweep today of the Seattle Mariners when they conclude their 3-game set at T-Mobile Park. The Rockies have won three straight and 8 of their last 10. They have also won their last 6 interleague games, are 5-0 in their last 5 overall against the Mariners, and 5-1 in their last 6 in Seattle. Colorado will also have an edge today in starting pitching. Germán Márquez is expected to get the nod for the Rockies. Márquez is 2-1 with a nasty 1.89 ERA and a WHIP of only 0.89. Seattle is expected to send the lefty, Justus Sheffield, to the hill. Sheffield is winless at 0-2, with a 9.39 ERA and a 1.83 WHIP. The Rocks’ Charlie Blackmon has been killing it at the plate and Colorado is 7-0 in their last 7 against a left-handed starter. Rocks are hot, ride them ’til they’re not.
