*MLB(1u): Rockies F5 TT OVER 2.5(-135) vs Brewers–3:10 PM CT

Brewers SP Adrian Houser is extremely unreliable and has been especially poor on the road this year(6.69 ERA, 1.79 WHIP). With a BB/9 at 4.8 away from home, I have a really hard time seeing Houser flip the script at Coors Field, which is notorious for having the most hitter-friendly conditions in baseball. The Rockies are a horrible offense away from home, but at Coors Field, they have the 6th highest OPS vs righties since July 1st. They have found themselves in this spot(first game back home after a multi-series road trip) on 7 separate occasions this year and managed to score nearly 8 runs/game in this role. They are plenty capable of taking advantage of Houser today.

I would also lean towards Rockies F5 ML at the plus-price, but Rockies SP Ryan Feltner has not shown the consistency here in his rookie year to where I want to be backing him in this spot.
