Said on Twitter that I might take today off as I didn't really like the board ... and I didn't. Then this dropped from Cardinals -195 to -170 and now I think it's worth it. Plus, what else am I gonna do tonight? Watch "Fried Green Tomatoes" with my wife? Hard pass. Big edge on the mound with Miles Mikolas (even if roughed up last time out) over Anibal Sanchez. I expect big games from Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Arenado after they couldn't play in Toronto due to being unvaccinated for COVID. Should be very motivated and both have good career splits off Sanchez ... so does Albert Pujols, although I'm sure most of those at-bats were years ago. STL is simply due: 0-8 in past eight after an off day. The Cards also get to scout Juan Soto in person: He might be one of them by next Tuesday.
