Pittsburgh is a team that is just terrible on the road this season being 14-24 on the road this season and 17-35 road games overall. Pirates are 0-6 in their last 6 games as an underdog of +110 to +150. Colorado is the hottest team in MLB winning 13 out of there last 14 games overall. The pitching matchup in this game is Hammel (4-3 4.10 ERA) vs Morton first real start. Morton was terrible for Atlanta last season as a starter. Hammel has been impressive his last 6 out of 7 starts giving up less than 3 runs in 6 outings. I believe that Colorado is going to win this game no problem today
