Both the St. Louis Cardinals and the Cincinnati Reds were shut out on Thursday, and I think they'll struggle to produce run when they clash here Friday night in the opener of a three-game set. The Reds have scored two runs or fewer in each of their last six games and Cardinals left-hander Steven Matz has a 3.38 ERA and 14 Ks in 13 1/3 career innings against the Reds.

Free pick on UNDER.
