Cincinnati Reds @ St Louis Cardinals

St Louis should take this, but Garcia's latest outing and the price, mean I can't take them tonight - even though Albert is back (but not starting).

Garcia is 4-1 with a 0.84/0.88 WHIP/ERA in seven home games, and although he has been sketchy in his last few starts, his numbers at Busch can't be ignored: he has won all four starts against the Reds, posting a 3.70 ERA.

Volquez' last start against the Rays was somewhat better than his stats L3 would suggest: he allowed three earned runs on four hits and struck out seven.

'Busch Stadium finished in the bottom 10 in HRs, runs and SLG% last season, cementing its status as a pitchers park.'

I'll go Under and hope Volquez can keep a little form and Garcia shuts down the Reds.

Pick: Under 8 @ 2.00
