Schule's MLB AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER - MIL@STL
(MLB) Milwaukee vs. St. Louis, 04/11/2016 12:15 PM, Score: 1 - 10
Point Spread: 1.50 | -145.00 Milwaukee (Away)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* play on Milwaukee +1.5.

The Cardinals crushed Atlanta in a three game sweep at Turner Field, but it might be a bit premature to get too excited about this St. Louis offense. They really struggled at the plate in Pittsburgh, and they could cool off today against a hot young Brewers pitcher.

Taylor Jungmann will toe the slab for the visitors, and he was sharp in his debut. The 26 year old gave up two runs (one unearned), on three hits over five innings in a 4-3 win over the Giants. He was more successful at home than he was on the road in his rookie season, but his day/night splits give reason for optimism here. He was 3-2 with a 2.45 ERA in seven starts in day games last season.

The Cardinals hand the ball to Michael Wacha, who seemed to fall apart at the end of last year. He got hammered by the Pirates in his first start of 2016, giving up five runs on 10 hits over just 4 1/3 innings. He's 2-0 against the Brewers since 2013, but his ERA of 5.75 in four appearances looks a little concerning.

Take MIL.
