Both St. Louis and Houston have struggled lately but they both come up with a win tonight. How does this effect tomorrows game? Not much...

As we already know, Wandy Rodriguez is a different pitcher when he pitches outside of Minute Maid Park... Plus, he is 0-4 versus the Cards in his career. Branden Looper on the other hand, pitches well against the Astros, going 2-0 this season. So what's up with the spread? Most likely, Pujols being out made that line so low. But even without Pujols, this line should be around -135 imo. Hopefully, the Cards will get an early lead and never look back... GL...
