AAA's 10* GAME OF WEEK (THIS IS THE BIG ONE!)
(MLB) Kansas City vs. St. Louis,
Money Line: -138.00 St. Louis (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 10* GAME OF THE WEEK on the St. Louis Cardinals.

We don't think that home field advantage can be overlooked as a factor in the final outcome of this one.

Trevor Cahill: He's 4-3 with a 4.13 ERA. Cahill most recently allowed two runs off six hits and two walks while striking out three over 4.2 innings in a no-decision against the Mariners on Thursday. In his previous start Cahill gave up five earned runs over four innings, meaning he's now given up 12 runs over his last 12.1 innings of work (note that he's 0-3 with a 6.30 ERA on the road.)

Mike Leake: He's 7-10 with a 3.34 ERA. Leake most recently allowed three runs off eight hits while striking out three over six innings in a loss to Cincinnati on Friday. Leake posted a 2.98 ERA in June, but scuffled in July. Despite that though he still owns a very respectable 3.20 ERA at home this year.

The bottom line: We expect Cahill to continue to struggle on the road and we expect Leake to take full advantage. All things considered, a great price. Play on the CARDINALS.
