2015 Season MLB Baseball Past Picks

The St. Louis Cardinals have been the best team in baseball this season. One reason has been the fact that they take the field on most nights with a solid pitching advantage. That will again be the case tonight as the Cardinals send John Lackey to the mound with his 9-6 record and 2.78 ERA on the season. He will be opposed by right-hander Anthony DeSclafani for the Reds. The key here is the fact that St. Louis is taking on a righty. They have absolutely dominated right-handed pitching this season where they are 53-24 which has given them a +23.2% ROI against righties. Left-handers have been their demise, where they are 14-14 on the season at -10.2% ROI. It's hard to buck these odds, and the Cards have been 6-0 in their last six as road chalk from -110 to -150. Take St. Louis in this one.
