Pirates vs. Rockies MLB Pick- August 29th
The slide lasted on Wednesday, as they saw another reduction pile up in their record. Colorado enter Thursday with a record of 59-74. There's no way to twist that. It has simply been a season for the Rockies, who are currently making vacation plans.
This was after signing Nolan Arenado, afterwards they came into this year with promise. This is not Arenado's fault. He's been playing well with a .309 batting average along with 34 home runs. Following a slow start, Arenado started to compile his numbers that were anticipated and acquired his season together.
The problem stems from Arenado not getting assistance everywhere. It has been a frequent subject with the Rockies this year. Arenado doubles with 1 outside or even not one, then the next two batters do nothing and that he remains stranded on second base. When you perform at Coors Field, then you need to make the most of opportunities. Coupled with Arenado needing to carry the load, the pitching has been cringy to observe.
Awful pitching will be anticipated at Coors Field, but there hasn't been much on the road of an advancement for them.
Where they are playing it has mattered, it's been almost impossible to acquire 4-2 or even 3-1 games using their own turning. The same may be said for the Pittsburgh Pirates, who've made a lot of the exact mistakes.
The rotation isn't strong and the bullpen is irregular. Heads have been turning with his power, however, the offense lacks depth. Trevor Williams will get the start as they play with with their fourth competition in a row on the road. Chi Chi Gonzalez is anticipated for the Rockies tonight.

Chi Chi Gonzalez is looking for his first win of this season. He's been great and bad this season. Despite the ERA of all 6.43, he should probably have at least one win by today. He has had some excursions where he's been solid enough to find a win. In five from the eight trips, Gonzalez has gone at least 4 innings and surrendered 3 runs or less.
His offense should have helped him out some where in these outings, but no winners for Chi Chi. Because of threeshowings on the road, that came from the Astros, Padres, along with Cardinals, his ERA is skewed all of the way around 6.43. He's ever been more than advertised. When he will avoid getting mauled early in this contest, the Rockies should make out okay from the Pirates.
Trevor Williams goes to Coors Field using an abysmal ERA of 7.62 and 1.92 WHIP in his past 3 outings. Williams had enabled at least five earned runs in 3, before settling down against the Reds in his latest start. He does get the Rockies since they've gone 1-6 in their last seven matches.
On the other hand, the Rockies will be at home for their fourth straight game, while the Bucs are in a row on the street for their fourth. While Colorado are in Coors Field, pittsburgh have struggled mightily this year with a record of 27-40.
This is supposed to be a contest Thursday night. 14 runs seems so it is a bet. Instead, I think the Rockies can get out of the funk for a evening and take advantage of a Pittsburgh club in Coors Field tonight.
