The Cardinals have never faced the Angels in L.A. and in St. Louis they have a 5-4 record against them.

Lance Lynn (10-2 3.52 ERA) goes for the Cardinals tonight and he gave up 4 earned runs in 7 innings in a loss to the Houston Astros in his last start.

Jared Weaver (1-4 4.15 ERA) gets the starting not for the Angels and in his last start he was solid only giving up 1 earned run in 7 innings, but got no run support and took a no decision facing the Detroit Tigers.

Weaver is 13-4 with a 2.61 ERA in 24 career interleague starts and in his last 5 starts he is 0-3 with a 4.40 ERA.

The Cardinals have the best road record in the Majors.

Albert Pujols will be facing his old team tonight and this season he is only hitting .249, but does have 13 HR and 49 RBI.

Weaver will be facing a Cardinals’ offense that ranks 3rd in the Majors in runs, team batting average, and on base percentage.

In some betting trends for this interleague match up the Cardinals are 2-6 in their last 8 games, 23-8 in Lynn’s last 31 starts, and they have an Over record of 6-2 in their last 8 road games.

The Angels are 6-0 in their last 6 overall, 39-13 in Weavers last 52 home starts, and they have an Under record of 3-0-1 in their last 4 games.

In the last 6 games between these 2 teams the total has gone Over 6 times.

Jason’s Pick: I have to go with the hot Angels in this game, as I think Weaver will pitch well and the Halos’ bats will get to Lynn.
