Our Arizona Diamondbacks vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
Neither lineup has been overly impressive at the plate in this series, which means we need to look to the mound to find an advantage. In this case, it is pretty clear where the advantage lies. Pallante is not a bad pitcher, but the D-backs lineup will certainly not fear him. Rodriguez, on the other hand, is having a great season and is tough to hit no matter where a game is being played. He should be able to keep the Cardinals hitters in check, but I wouldn’t count on the Diamondbacks lineup to get enough of a lead to cover the run line.
