1 Unit on St. Louis Cardinals -105

The Cardinals have come out of the gate strong to start the season and I'll back them tonight. St. Louis will be out for blood as it returns home after back-to-back road losses to division rival Chicago and it also has the benefit of 3 day's rest. The Mets Oliver Perez is fade material right now as he brings in an ERA of 7.84 and looked awful in his only road start this season. I call this one the offensive explosion system as plays on home teams (ST LOUIS) - very good offensive team - scoring >=5.3 runs/game on the season (NL), after 2 straight losses by 2 runs or less are 46-15 since 1997. In addition, the Mets are only 2-11 against the money line in road games vs. an NL team with a team batting average of .280 or better over the last 2 seasons. Bet the Red Birds tonight
