The PLAY: Total Under 7.5 (-108) M Liberatore (LHP), E Perez (RHP) Must Start
Eury Pérez has a stellar 2.08 ERA and 0.92 WHP at home. Opposing batters are hitting just .158 against him here. While Pérez has been tough at home, Matthew Liberatore has been solid (3.59 ERA) on the road. At least, much better than his 2-5 road record would suggest. Admittedly, Liberatore has struggled recently. However, he's determined to turn things around and to prove to the Cardinals that he should be starting. "I don't know if there's anything I've wanted more than to be a big-league starter. I don't know if I could want to be a reliever again." With Liberatore supported by a capable (3.64 ERA) St. Louis bullpen, this should be a relatively low-scoring affair.
Ben Burns is SportsMemo's reigning football champion. Burns finished last season #1 for profit, ROI and win percentage.
