The Cardinals were the preseason betting favorites to win the NL Central, but they now sit in last at 11-24. One of the teams they are looking up at is the rival Cubs, who own a mark of 17-17.

Miles Mikolas’ awful form has been a key cause of St. Louis’ underachievement, as he has pitched to a 5.79 ERA in 37.1 innings. He will start tonight’s matchup versus the Cubs, who will go with Marcus Stroman.

Stroman has pitched to a 2.18 ERA in 41 innings with a 1.09 WHIP. He and the Cubs are -130 favorites in Monday’s series opener, with a low total of 7.

As you would expect when you see a total of 7 at Wrigley, heavy winds are expected to blow in toward home plate for most of this contest.
