I was done today if Houston won to go with cashes in Arlington and Denver -- and frankly I loved the Astros this afternoon. But they blew a 3-0 lead and lost in extras and that hurt. Weird week, really. The Cards might have the slightly better pitcher here in Andre Pallante over Will Warren, but with HR Derby champ Jordan Walker out again for the Cards I just don't like their lineup at all: Bryan Torres? Jimmy Crooks? C├йsar Prieto? Also the end of a trip. And the Cardinals appear to be fading overall. Warren has been better at home and few STL batters have seen him.
