Daily Bet - St. Louis Cardinals vs Florida Marlins


Written by: Josh Hammer, The Reserve Clause

I hope all of you took my advice on the over for the Yankees vs White Sox game last night. It hit the over in the 3rd inning! Look for tonight's match up to bring us home another win.

MLB Pick for August 4, 2011:

Spread: St. Louis Cardinals -1.5/Florida Marlins +1.5
Over/Under: 8.5

The newest acquisition of the Cardinals, Rafael Furcal, has been absolutely on fire in his first 4 games with his new team. The Cardinals will need Albert Pujols to finally show up this season and hit the ball (currently hitting .283) better in the month of August which is his best month stats wise. With that said, the Cardinals will be pitching righthander Kyle Lohse (9.7, 3.33 ERA) while the Marlins will be pitching Clay Hensley (1-1, 2.65 ERA). I look for the big 3 from the Cardinals to light up Hensley and outscore the Marlins in tonight's match up.

MY PICK: St. Louis Cardinals to cover the spread of -1.5
