This is a 10* SIDE OF THE MONTH on the St. Louis Cardinals.
Milwaukee held on for a 4-3 win over the Braves yesterday afternoon, while at the same time St. Louis wasted a great start by Mike Leake and fell apart late in a 5-4 setback to the Reds. We're expecting Milwaukee to take a step back in the opener of this three-game series though and we look for the Cards to make amends for yesterday's "brain fart" and to take full advantage of this favorable matchup.
Zach Davies: He's 2-2 with a 6.57 ERA. He comes in off a decent outing, scattering six hits and a walk over five scoreless frames in a 9-1 win over the Reds on Tuesday. It was his strongest outing of the 2017 campaign, so we're not ready quite yet to say he's turned the corner. He does have a decent 21:7 K:BB ratio over his last 20.1 innings of work, but owns a disastrous 1.86 WHIP (note that Davies owned a pedestrian 4.39 ERA on the road last year).
Michael Wacha: He's 2-1 with a 2.55 ERA. Wacha struggled last year, going 7-7 with a 4.62 ERA. He's been strong from the very start this year though and he comes in off another decent outing, giving up two runs off five hits and a walk while striking out six over six innings in an unfortunate no-decision against the Blue Jays on Tuesday.
The bottom line: Wacha has posted four-straight quality starts and owns a superb 1.09 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB ratio over 24.2 innings of work. In our professional opinion, this is the very definition of "great line value," play on the CARDINALS.
