4* Money Maker
(MLB) Pittsburgh vs. St. Louis,
Money Line: 116.00 Pittsburgh (Away)
Result: Loss
Taking the PIRATES here. And how can we not? You can say, hey, they just swept the Cubbies. No way they win today. Well, why wouldn't they? These guys are playing great right now. And for me, trends like this are huge on the bases. I had STL with C-Mart. He was a strikeout machine, but also a walk machine. Toss in some errors and it's a bad day all around. But this Cardinals team has looked terrible in the field the entire Yankees series. Losers of 3 straight, 8 of 10, 9 of 12. Nova had a very good spring and has looked solid so far in his 2 starts of 2017. Lynn has a 4.74 ERA vs Pitt for his career. (5-5 19 games, 17 starts). STL has just one regular hitting over .250. Can't back a team in a slump like this. 4* Money Maker PITT PIRATES
