This is an 8* MOUND MISMATCH on the Cardinals.
After starting 3-7 and off back-to-back losses, including a 7-4 setback in yesterday's series opener, I like Miles Mikolas and the Cards to dig deep here and get the job done against Kyle Freeland and the home side.
Mikolas (0-1, 9.64 ERA) has struggled in back-to-back starts to open the season. He had a decent spring and last year he owned a respectable 4.11 ERA on the road. I think he can bounce back here with a much better performance.
Freeland is 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA, but regression is imminent in my opinion. Last year Freeland was 5-6 with a 6.00 ERA at home.
The moral of the story here with these starters, is not to overreact to early results. Look for the Cards to be the more desperate team here from the first pitch, and expect that to ultimately be the difference-maker in the outcome of this one.
The play is ST. LOUIS.
Good luck, NP
