AAA's AMAZING 5-GAME MLB FRIDAY NIGHT DESTRUCTION PASS!
(MLB) Pittsburgh vs. St. Louis,
Money Line: -140.00 St. Louis (Home)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* play on the St. Louis Cardinals.

We look for the Cards to find a way to get the job done in front of the home town crowd tonight. The visitors hand the ball to Jameson Taillon (2-4, 4.53 ERA) who gave up three earned runs off five hits while walking one and striking out six over 6.1 innings against the Cards on Sunday. In his previous outing against the Reds, Taillon was shelled for six earned runs though. Suffice it say, we think Taillon struggles again here as note that he's a poor 0-3 with an elevated 5.47 ERA on the road. St. Louis goes with Miles Mikolas (6-0, 2.58) who gave up four earned runs while striking out five in a no-decision to the Pirates throwing opposite Taillon last week. Mikolas would allow just six base runners and he's now gone three straight starts without allowing a single home run. Also note that he's 3-0 with a 1.53 ERA at home this year. We like Mikolas and ST. LOUIS in this matchup and believe that this line could/should easily be a lot larger.
