Under in 12/17 this season, and although a bunch of the overs have come recently, I like the Cards to chase him in this familiar matchup. 2.2 IP vs STL back in May, and 5.2 IP in his last start - but it took him a season high 109 pitches and it was against a very watered down STL lineup (no Goldy, Contreras or Gorman). He should see 5 LHH, which is his worse split (.942 OPS). Cards bats have been hot - 123 wRC+ over the L30 days vs righties, and the Cubs pen is in good shape.
