The Cardinals will look to avoid the sweep at the hands of the Nationals on Sunday afternoon. The Nats will start rookie D.J. Herz who has gone 0-3 in his last four starts with the Nats losing the other contest over that stretch as well. On the season he owns a 4.52 FIP and 1.40 WHIP in 36 1/3 innings of work. The Cardinals go with Mikolas who enters this start pitching well having held three of his last four opponents to two earned runs or less. Take St. Louis here on Sunday afternoon.
