Dave Cokin free pick

(913) CINCINNATI REDS
(914) HOUSTON ASTROS
Take "(913) CINCINNATI REDS"

Wandy Rodriguez can be very tough at home, but the one thing the Astros almost never get from Rodriguez is lots of innings. Wandy rarely last seven frames and managed to go eight innings just once last season. That means the Houston bullpen is going to get involved here and that's good news for the Reds, particularly with closer Jose Valverde mired in an early season slump. Aaron Harang has been very impressive thus far and appears to be back to 100%. Harang is one of those April go with pitchers, as he's a robust 13-6 lifetime in the season's opening month. Off the dramatic comeback win Friday night, I think the Reds are worth a play today.
