20* Pittsburgh Pirates
Today I am taking the Pittsburgh Pirates as small road underdogs against the St. Louis Cardinals. The Pirates have one of the strangest starts to a season. They have rotated 4 straight sweeps to start the season 6-6. Now they have lost two tough 2-1 games against the Cardinals but have the better pitcher on the mound Wednesday. Gerrit Cole has had success against St. Louis as has faired better against the Cardinals than Wacha has against the Pirates. Take Pittsburgh as they get the win and avoid their 5th straight rotating sweep.
