St Louis Cardinals @ Chicago Cubs

The Cards seem to be buckling a little under the pressure of pursuing the Brewers: they're 4-6 L10.

Westbrook has lost both his starts against Chicago this season, giving up nine earned runs in less than nine innings.

That's not to say Lopez inspires; although he has gone 7-3 L10, St Louis beat him like a gong the last time he faced them, tagging him for 6 runs on 8 hits in just four and a third, and his numbers L3 are as poor as Westbrook's.

Lopez is 0-3 with 8.76 in his last three games against the Cardinals.

Given the pitchers' numbers ...

Pick: Over 9 @ 2.05
