Dodgers -$1.10 (Wolf) hosting Rockies (Jimenez)

Analysis: The Rockies have lost eight of their last nine games to the Dodgers. Rockies starter Ubaldo Jimenez struggles versus the Dodgers. He's already lost three times to them this season with a fat 10.20 ERA, giving up 17 earned runs in 15 innings. The Dodgers' projected lineup tonight is batting .339 against him.

In nine career starts against the Dodgers, Jimenez has a 6.99 ERA. The Rockies are vulnerable in middle relief and closer Huston Street is unlikely to pitch having worked three straight games.

Colorado is 7-21 in Jimenez's last 28 road starts.

Dodgers starter Randy Wolf has been excellent at home if you exclude his last start at Dodger Stadium when he was feeling under the weather.

Discounting that outing, Wolf has allowed two earned runs in his previous four home starts spanning 24 innings. His strikeout-to-walk ratio during this time frame was 23-to-5.

The Dodgers are 10-2 the past 12 times Wolf has been a home favorite.
 
I'm on a 15-4 run the past five days on my baseball selections. I haven't been posting at PreGame lately, but I'll try to get back into the habit. I have a 3-Pack going today. It can be seen here http://pregame.com/pregamepros/Bettors.aspx?CapperId=7746
 
Thanks and best of luck.
