Both of these teams have been struggling of late. But we like Philly's chances a lot here at home starting Moyer, a southpaw. The Cards are horrendous vs. lefties, going 12-16 and scoring just 3.8 per game. Moyer isn't his old self this year but he's still been decent, posting a 4.43 ERA and 7-7 record. The same can't be said for Kip Wells who has a 6.61 ERA in 15 starts. The Cardinals are 2-13 with him starting this year. On the road he's 1-7 with a 7.69 ERA. In his last three starts he has lasted just 3.8 innings per start and gotten hammered. THe past two seasons, with him starting, his team has gone 2-17 vs. NL teams that score 5.8+ runs per game. Philadelphia pounds in 5.5 runs per game vs. righties. And, the Phils are 17-4 the past two seasons vs. NL starters with an ERA over 6.20.
