MLB - 959 Pittsburgh Pirates @ 960 St Louis Cardinals
(Starting Pitchers: F. Liriano vs S. Miller)
Francisco Liriano will start for Pittsburgh tonight and he is coming from getting pounded at Colorado. He was giving sings that he was about to regress with five walks on his previous start and that indeed happened against the Rockies. Liriano has walked at least two batters in five of his last seven starts! He dominated the Cardinals early on the season in the only game where he faced St Louis this season, but things will be now different, as he is on much worse form right now.
St Louis will start Shelby Miller, who will play tonight, after an elbow scare on his last outing. He will have two clear edges in tonight's game. Miller is great at home with 2.57 FIP and 2.90 xFIP this season, while he is also great against RH batters with 2.84 FIP and 3.00 xFIP. This is excellent for him, as Pittsburgh's lineup is full of righties. With Miller having a nice matchup and with Liriano struggling right now, I believe the Cardinals will take advantage of this SP edge to pick up a comfortable win tonight.
Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 960 St Louis Cardinals ML (w/ S. Miller) @ -122 / 1.82 on 5Dimes
