QUICK ANALYSIS

LISTED STARTERS

PALLANTE/ PFAADT

We will play this Arizona club at home to go OVER until we don’t as long as we can keep getting good numbers on the total. We get 8 1 /2 over 25 here and it will be 9 come game time. Andre Pallante hits the hill for St. Louis and he has had a rough season as his 4.49 ERA would suggest. We like the Diamondbacks to put up runs against him especially at home. We have not been fans of Brandon Pfaadt for some years now and we have had success playing him over this season. He is sporting a 5.16 ERA on the year and he really can be any type. STL can score runs and did put up 3 runs earlier this season on Brandon. We expect more of the same tonight. Arizona has averaged OVER 5 runs a game in their last 5 games and then when the BP’s get involved, that just means more runs. So lets get the job done with the St. Louis/ Arizona game OVER 8 1 /2 as your free play for today in MLB.
