If I had to pick one pitcher to step into the limelight in London, it might be Stroman. He doesn't lack FOR confidence, and it doesn't hurt that he has won 7 straight games with a sparkling 1.29 ERA. He has also pitched for length, lasting into the 6th or more in 7 straight as well. He'll face the Cards' young left-hander Liberatore, who's starts have been short and generally pretty average, with a 6.12 ERA to date. He has also struggled on the road. With just 15 appearances, who knows how he will respond to such a showcase event. Chicago is 12-7 in June, and 13-9 vs left-handers. They are getting solid offense and excellent overall pitching, resulting in an impressive 6.1/2.3 Runs for/against in their last 10 games. The Cards have struggled in June and against right-handers of late, breaking even at 5.1/5.1 Runs for and against. Watch for the "Stro show" to win out in London. Take the Cubs to win Game two.
