Even a pedestrain Yu Darvish (and he's looked better than that so far) is about a run better than Miles Mikolas (15.9 K%, 38.8 GB% and 9.4% Barrels/BBE LY). The Cardinals may have the slightly better offense, but with all the balls in play against a poor St Louis defense, I like San Diego's chances even more.

Over 7.5-110
