The value with Wacha here who has posted a 1.90 ERA and 1.06 WHIP on the road is just too much for me to pass up with the Cardinals bullpen posting an ERA under 3 over their last 10 games. I typically will fade the Cardinals against a LHP and Liriano has posted solid numbers against the Cardinals, but the Cardinals made acquisitions to address their inability to hit lefties last year and they have started to finally pay off. They're ranked 28th but were dead last vs. LHP as of last week in OPS, and over their last 10 games they have a .304 average and are scoring 6.23 r/9 vs. LHP.
Francisco Liriano has struggled in two starts this year as Johny Peralta is 13-40 career, Matt Adams and Yadier Molina combine for 5-8 this season alone. Liriano has not put up good numbers 1.50 WHIP at home and his velocity is down.. He has a tERA of 4.49 and is walking over 4 guys per 9. The Pirates are 7-17 in their last 24 vs. a RH starter.. take the Cardinals.
