STL has struggled vs the NL West and I look for the Diamondbacks to play well offensively in this game because they have done a great job batting against right-handers and Flaherty hasn’t been as sharp on the road, where he gave up 13 runs in his last four starts.
He gave up eight runs in his last three starts against the Diamondbacks and will have a hard time slowing them down in this game. The Cardinals have lost four of their last five games and ARZ will use their speed on the bases to push across some runs this afternoon.
