Stephen Nover's Picks

By Stephen Nover Rockies at Diamondbacks Under 9 minus $1.20 The Rockies are batting .314 at home. The Braves have the next highest home batting average at .277, which is 37 points behind the Rockies. Take Colorado out of Coors Field, though, and the Rockies’ offense isn’t scary at all.

By Stephen Nover Marlins plus $1.40 hosting Cardinals The last time I got involved with the Marlins they were plus $1.24 home ‘dogs against the Braves two days ago. The Marlins led 5-1 going into the bottom of the ninth inning. Thanks to Sergio Romo blowing that lead in a 6-5 extra inning loss, I […]
