Arizona Diamondbacks vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
St. Louis snapped a four-game skid with last night’s walkoff victory, and with Steven Matz set to go at home, I like swaying their way again here for game two. Matz uncharacteristically struggled in Oakland last time out, but he’ll now return to Busch Stadium where he’s been pretty good over the past two seasons, and we should see an improved outing from him. DBacks starter Tommy Henry’s feels targetable, so let’s roll with St. Louis this Tuesday.
