Orioles @ Rockies Analysis & Breakdown
Jackson Holiday recorded a triple in last night’s contest with the Rockies.
The Orioles and the Rockies are two teams on complete different sides of the spectrum right now. The Orioles lead the Wild Card Race and sit just 1 game back of the Yankees for the lead in the AL East.
The Rockies, on the flip side, are a team struggling to string two wins together. They’re 50-86 currently, last in their division and sit just 1 game ahead of last place in the National League. Colorado’s scoring 5 runs per game at home this season, but have still gone just 31-36 at home this year.
Baltimore needs every win they can get, not only can they secure top spot in the AL East, but they’re competing with the Yankees for top spot in the American League. They’re averaging 4.95 runs per game (4th) and have won more games on the road this year than at Camden Yard.
With the Yankees winning 6 of their L9 games, the Orioles will need to keep winning games, especially games like these ones against the lowly Rockies.
Anthony Santander 3+ Total Bases (+130) via BetOnline – Get a $500 WELCOME BONUS
Anthony Santander is having a career year with 38 HR and 86 RBI.
Santander has only played 1 game through his first 8 seasons, at Coors Field, that game was last night. He went 1/5, hit a double and scored no runs or RBI. The Orioles won 5-3, they hit just 1 home run, and it came from Emmanuel Rivera.
Tonight Santander faces off with right handed pitcher Ryan Feltner, he’s got a 4.95 ERA, he’s allowing 1.2 home runs per 9 innings, and giving up 9.98 hits per 9 innings. Feltner has a 5.96 ERA at Coor Field this year and he’s allowing left handed bats to hit 0.295 with a .480 SLG.
Feltner hasn’t been good this year and he’s been even worse at home. Santander is batting 0.242 on the road this year with a 0.542 SLG; 22 of his 38 home runs have also come on the road. He’s never hit 1 at Coors Field and it feels like a foregone conclusion he’s going hit a yak before he leaves this weekend.

Gunnar Henderson 3+ Total Bases (+130) via BetOnline – Get a $500 WELCOME BONUS
Gunnar Henderson is 0/5 in his 1 career game at Coors Field.
Henderson went 0/5 last night in his debut at Coors Field and I just can’t see that happening again. Gunnar’s hitting 0.281 on the road this season, 12 points higher than at home, and he’s also got a 0.513 SLG to boot.
Henderson’s hitting 0.286 against righties this year with 25 of his 33 home runs coming against right handed pitchers. Both Henderson and Santander have never faced off with Feltner, but Feltner does struggle against big left handed bats.
The Orioles had the pleasure of having some of the guys down the lineup respond in a big way, but if they hope to keep winning games maybe even win the division, they’ll need their big guns to once again step up.
Satander and Henderson were a combined 1/10 last night for just two bases and no runs or RBIs; that’ll need to change if they hope to compete in October.
