Cardinals -131 (4.5* MLB POD)
We head with the Cards for our POD backing Carpenter once again. Carp has a 1.66 ERA since June 23 and has been dominant in his starts vs. the Pirates going 11-2 in 16 starts with a 2.09 ERA. Cards are 14-2 vs. Pirates in his 16 career starts. Carp struggled early on the road but has been dominant over his last 2 starts going 17 IP giving up 2 total earned runs. Pit is 24th in the league in OPS vs. RHP with a .670 OPS. So while they are playing well it's not their offense and they'll need their offense to come up big here and I don't htink they will as they struggle at home to score runs vs. RHP. Maholm goes for St. Louis and that's good news for Pujols and the Cardinals who beat up on another lefty yesterday. I always like playing a team that hits lefties well and are facing lefties on back to back. Cards are 7th in the league with a .743 OPS vs. LHP and Pujols is an incredible 19-33 vs. Maholm. Theriot also has success and Holliday adds 2HR. Cards are scoring over 5 runs per game on the road this year and are hot vs. LHP in their last 10 with a .289 average and 6.10 runs per 9. Also worth noting is that Carpenter comes in with 5 days rest and is 39-15 when on 5 days rest while Maholm and the Pirates are 7-22 when he's an under dog.

Braves -109 (3.5* play)
Hard not to back Jurrjens here he had his worst start of the year last game and I think he bounces back vs. the Reds who he shut down 8 IP 1 ER earlier this year. Arroyo on the other hand has been awful he's 3-7 with a 5.35 ERA at home 7.15 ERA at night and in his last 5 vs. the Braves he's got a 8.25 ERA with a 1.92 WHIP. Atlanta has 163 at bats with a .362 avg and 1.092 ops vs. Arroyo and are ranked higher in terms of OPS 12TH, VS. RH pitching than the Reds 18th. Braves are 20-6 in their last 26 vs. RH starter and are scoring 5.5 runs per 9 over their last 10 games vs. RHP.

Red Sox -140 (3*play)
King Felix is on the mound, but I'm confident in the progress Lackey has shown.He's got a 1.63 ERA in his last 3 starts vs. the Mariners with the Sox and the hitters in today's line up have had some success vs. Felix who has not been the same pitcher as he was a year ago.
