Friday's Lineup
25 DIME ---- CARDINALS (with Boggs) -1 1/2 RUN LINE over ASTROS (with Moehler)
Today is one of those strange days in Major League Baseball because the trade deadline is here. It's the day teams jockey for certain players in an attempt to either make themselves stronger for a playoff run or prepare for the future by acquiring prospects. The Cardinals have already made a big splash when they acquired OF Matt Holliday last weekend while the Astros (at the time of this writing) have yet to make a big move. To be honest, I don't think it's really going to matter because St. Louis simply doesn't lose to Houston at home. They've won the last five meetings with the Astros at home and seven of the last eight, winning with better starting pitching and better offense.
Tonight's starter, Mitchell Boggs, is a virtual unknown outside of the fantasy baseball world, but his work hasn't gone unnoticed. Boggs has four starts for the Cardinals this year, and although he's only 1-0 the team has won all four of his starts. He was sent back down to Triple-A Memphis back in May when the rotation became full again, but with Todd Wellemeyer on the disabled list, Boggs was called back up to make a crucial division start. Boggs is 3-0 in his last three starts at Class AAA Memphis. In 21 innings, he's allowed one run on 15 hits, with eight walks and 19 strikeouts.
Houston counters with Brian Moehler and his 5.26 ERA. Moehler's last start was at home vs. the Mets in which he lasted 4.1 innings, allowing eight hits and five earned runs in an 8-3 loss. Though he's won two of his last three starts, his 7-6 record just reiterates how average he really is. Average pitchers don't beat St. Louis at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals realize the importance of beating division rivals at home, especially when they're chasing the Chicago Cubs for the division lead. This one could get ugly... Cardinals in a rout.

Hello Guys, new to the forum. Hopefull I am able to contribute once I know how everything works.
I just read Davis's pick and I'm just wondering if he took in the fact that Brian Moehler is 5-0 against STL. I know the Astros are in a slump so there is now way I would put money on them right now, but can you but money against a streak that moehler has going? I don't know.

agreed....as i am a crew fan, it hurts to say, but the cardinals just took 3 of 4 from the "best" team (record wise at least) in the NL and their lineup is really good....plus moehler struggled at home in his last start against a terrible mets lineup.....i'll be with the cards and craig tonight

Game: Arizona Diamondbacks at New York Mets Jul 31 2009 7:10PM
Prediction: New York Mets
Reason: The Mets had their five-game winning streak snapped in the second game last night against the Rockies but they should be able to get it right back tonight. New York is 28-21 at home on the season and is keeping a glimmer of playoff hope alive. The Diamondbacks are coming off a 3-4 homestand and are 20-25 on the road for the year. Livan Hernandez has been solid since the All-Star break as he has tossed two straight quality outings and both of those were on the road where he has not had a good season. His numbers at home have been far from outstanding but most of the damage can be attributed to one horrible outing against the Dodgers. Take that away and his ERA drops from 4.78 to 3.29 in his other six home starts. Four of those six outings were quality performances. He will be opposed by Doug Davis who has been horribly inconsistent this season. He is coming off six shutout innings against the Pirates but prior to that, he allowed 13 runs in 6.1 innings covering two starts. He has allowed four runs or more seven times and even when he pitches well, he is not picking up the wins. Arizona is 6-15 in his 21 starts on the season including 2-7 in nine road starts. 3* New York Mets
