The forecast calls for strong winds blowing out to right in Philly on Monday night, which is worrisome, but I'm taking solace in Miles Mikolas' 51.6% groundball rate, as well as his extremely low walk rate of 2.7%. As for Phillies starter Nick Pivetta, he's much better at home, posting an ERA of 3.13 in 46 innings at Citizen's Bank.
The Phillies come back from a successful three-game road trip at Milwaukee, taking two-of-three, and have now won five of their last seven following a four game losing streak. The Phillies have been great at home all season (22-12), but Nick Pivetta has been on a downward cycle and they've lost his past four starts. Cardinals pick up the win.
