Philadelphia Phillies
It looks like Miles Mikolas has at least started to regain his 2018 form. He went seven complete innings in Monday’s 6–0 win over Philadelphia. Mikolas gave up just three hits and struck out five.
Philadelphia’s pitching walked seven in the loss. Yadier Molina and Paul DeJong both drove in two for the Red Birds.

Jerad Eickhoff’s first appearance this season came in mid-April out of the bullpen but he pitched the last four innings and just about perfectly. He’s been in the rotation ever since and has logged twenty-two innings.
In those innings, he’s given up just fifteen hits and eight walks, striking out twenty-seven. He hasn’t turned into the pitcher Philadelphia hoped he would but his career path isn’t set in stone. If he, Nola, and Arrieta can all have it going at the same time, sprinkle in some Eflin and Velasquez and suddenly Philly has a rotation that can match anybody’s.
St. Louis Cardinals
The Cardinals actually fell behind Chicago in the NL Central after taking the brooms over the weekend but they reclaimed first place on Monday with the shutout win, coupled by Chicago’s loss vs. the Marlins.
Yadier Molina collected three hits in the win and drove in two. He only has an OPS+ just over 80 but he has big games. He’s capable of hitting anybody in the league and he usually does damage in the clutch. He’s no longer a middle-of-the-order guy but he can do damage and if a pitcher relaxes at the bottom of the Cardinals’ lineup, Yadi will make him pay.

In his last three starts, Jack Flaherty has gone over eighteen innings and given up eleven hits and six walks, striking out twenty-three. He hasn’t hard the easiest start to the season but his WHIP is 1.25 and he’s shown the big arm with the strikeout numbers. I’m thinking he’ll get better as the season wears on.
