Bud Norris is 5-1 1.97 era 41 K's/45.2 inn vs Cards in his 7 career starts. Stros are 11-5 L16 vs StL. Stros are 6-1 L7 @ StL. Stros are 6-1 L7 Norris starts vs StL, and 4-0 L4 Norris starts @ StL.
we did actually get to him in the last game (but that was in hou) just worked a lot of pitch counts and got him out early (still lost thanks to defense and our pen), another plus is stl cant field a baseball to save their lives and it is costing them games (damn near cost them last night again).
Loshe has been much better than i expected (guess he really was hurt last season) but the guy is still a avg major league pitcher, hou offense nothing special but Pence and Lee have pretty good numbers off of him, all hou has to do is scrape a few runs across and let Bud continue to look like cy young against the cards.
not thrilled about going against my team with the lowly stros but Norris has owned us since day 1, with numbers like the ones above i feel like its a play that has to be made at +160.
GL everyone
