There is always an anticipation of a pitcher's duel whenever two high caliber starters take the mound. Such is the expctation when Josh Johnson of the Marlins squares off vs Joel Piniero of the Cardinals. The problem is each has performed worse over their last three starts than they have over the course of the season, so we aren't getting either in the zone here so to speak. Then add in a Marlins team that has been very offensive and has played 27-13-1 to the over in their last 41 games. They are also 10-3-1 to the over with Johnson on the mound after they scored two or less the day before. Cards 4-0 to the over after two runs or less and 5-1 over in their last six vs a righthander where they score much more. The last five meetings have seen just one go under the total between these two clubs, and I'll ride the over here.
