The Cardinals finished last in the NL Central last season. They are a half-game out of the division cellar this season. St. Louis ranks 28th in homers and is at a starting pitcher disadvantage in this matchup. So I'll lay a small price with Kutter Crawford against Miles Mikolas.
Cutter has turned a corner this season becoming a consistent pitcher with an impressive 2.24 ERA. Not only do the Cardinals rank third-from-last in runs, but their main power hitters are over-the-hill. St. Louis is 26th in homers.
The Red Sox should do damage against Mikolas. He was bad last season and he's bad this season with a 6.19 ERA and 1.48 WHIP. He's allowed eight homers in 48 innings. Mikolas is 0-2 with a 7.63 ERA at home this season.
