This is an 8* SITUATIONAL PITCHING MISMATCH on the St. Louis Cardinals.

The visitors hand the ball to Lance Lynn (7-5, 2.79 ERA) who is coming off a strong outing vs. the Mets on Friday, giving up one run off three hits over seven frames while striking out nine in the victory. For the most part, Lynn has been as solid as the Cardinals could possibly ask for, note that he's 6-3 with a highly respectable 2.64 ERA in all "night" games this season. The home side counters with John Danks (5-8, 4.98 ERA) who is coming off a second straight victory in a win over the Royals on Friday, pitching six shutout innings, giving up four hits and four walks. Note though that Danks has struggled in this spot all year, just 3-3 with a pedestrian 4.39 ERA at home and only 3-5 with a ballooned 5.57 ERA in all "night" games. For the most part MLB handicapping comes down to the starting pitching and this is a matchup which we feel clearly favors Lynn. With Danks having already proven to be a liability in this spot, we have no problems all in laying this very reasonable price. Play on the CARDINALS.
