Gambling911.com has your Rockies vs. Padres betting pick and DFS plays for Monday evening’s game in Colorado.

Best Bets:  OVER 9.5

Best DFS Picks: Matt Kemp, Jedd Gyorko, Yangervis Solarte

PITCHING MATCHUP: Padres RH Odrisamer Despaigne (1-0, 0.77 ERA) vs. Rockies LH Jorge De La Rosa (2014: 14-11, 4.10)

Betting Line: Colorado -122, San Diego +117, Total: 9.5

De La Rosa has struggled to contain Padres current roster of hitters, which seems to bold well for an OVER in Colorado.  He has a 4.41 ERA lifetime against the Padres and has permitted 44 hits on 112 at bats versus current Padres players, second most of any starting pitcher today.

The OVER is 7-1 in San Diego’s last 8 games following a win and 12-3-1 in their last 16 road games.

The OVER is 5-2 in De La Rosa’s last 7 home starts vs. the Padres.

Some caution is advised in that the UNDER is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in Colorado.  We see that trend changing here.

Matt Kemp – (San Diego) – He went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer and two runs scored Saturday against the Cubs.  He is 15-for-29 vs. George De La Rosa with 12 RBIS.

Jedd Gyorko – (San Diego) – He is 10-for-15 verses De La Rosa.

San Diego INF Yangervis Solarte belted a two-run homer Sunday and is 8-of-21 with six RBIs over the last seven games.
