I like the plus money. Norris apparently has great stuff but control problems. He's an unknown and I always like callups/rookies in their first few starts before the scouts and videotape guys get them all figured out. Lohse is only decent, no great shakes. The Cards certainly hit better than the anemic Astros.

All in all I figure that the Astros should win this game about 43% of the time and there's decent value here.
