This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the St. Louis Cardinals.
We like the Cardinals to finally show up today and salvage the final of this three-game set in which they were shutout for the second time in their last four games in yesterday's 8-0 defeat. The difference maker today though is the massive talent discrepancy on the mound, St. Louis has to be feeling pretty good about its chances today in sending Michael Wacha (14-4, 2.85 ERA) to the hill, who is 3-0 with a minuscule 1.00 ERA over his last four starts, most recently going seven in a 2-1 win over the Giants on Monday. It's true that the Friars have had St. Louis' number over the last couple of years, but they'll be in tough here in countering with Colin Rea (2-0, 4.22 ERA) who was the beneficiary of a ton of offensive support in his first victory (11-6 over the Reds on August 11th), before looking adequate in a 5-3 win over the anemic Braves on Monday. Also note that it's now unclear who will be catching for Rea after Derek Norris injured his hand last night, a strong situational factor which can't be overlooked, but especially when it's a rookie pitcher. Wacha is clearly the superior starter, but we also have motivational and situational factors working on our side as well here, so in our professional opinion this is indeed the very definition of "great line value," play on the CARDINALS.
