His walk rate is worse than it\u2019s ever been \u2013 and that\u2019s very alarming for a guy who traditionally relies on good control to be effective. He\u2019s won just once in 11 starts this season. <\/p>\n<p>But his numbers are mildly deceiving. 14 of his earned runs came over four innings in two of those 11 starts. <\/p>\n<p>Bush has allowed three or fewer runs in every other outing this season. <\/p>\n<p>That said, the St. Louis Cardinals haven\u2019t been nice to him in his career. He\u2019s started nine games against them, compiling a 2-6 record and 6.45 ERA. <\/p>\n<p>Pretty much everyone in the current Cards\u2019 lineup has a good history against Bush. <\/p>\n<p>Yadier Molina has three homers in 18 at-bats; Skip Schumaker and Matt Holliday both hit north of .400 against him. Albert Pujols \u201conly\u201d has a .300 lifetime average against Bush.  <a href=\"http:\/\/record.partners.betus.com\/_zzar6WLC4ylmDxc4XxdMQaZ0sgTMZpgG\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: auto; height: auto; margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/media.partners.betus.com\/BANNERS\/baseball\/sportsbook_baseball_250x250_mybanner.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Worse yet for the Brewers, St. Louis sends a man with a 1.32 ERA to the hill on Sunday. <\/p>\n<p>If it weren\u2019t for Ubaldo Jimenez, Garcia would be dominating the National League ERA race, but he at least has the inside track on Rookie of the Year honors at the moment.  <\/p>\n<p>Garcia still walks a fair amount of batters (27 in 61.1 innings, typical for a rookie) but he\u2019s done an amazing job of keeping the ball in the park, allowing one homer in his 10 starts. <\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s also been extremely tough to hit, holding opponents to a .206 average this year. <\/p>\n<p>He cruised past the Brewers the last time he faced them, allowing one run and holding Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder hitless in eight combined at-bats. <\/p>\n<p>Since Garcia is especially strong at home, sporting a 0.72 ERA, Sunday\u2019s matchup screams St. Louis victory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gambling Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Milwaukee is 1-5 SU in its last 6 games on the road<br \/>\nMilwaukee is 1-6 SU in its last 7 games<br \/>\nSt. Louis is 5-1 SU in its last 6 games<br \/>\nSt. Louis is 5-1 SU in its last 6 games at home<br \/>\nSt. Louis is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games when playing Milwaukee<br \/>\nSt. Louis is 5-13 SU in its last 18 games when playing at home against Milwaukee<br \/>\nMilwaukee is 13-5 SU in its last 18 games when playing on the road against St. Louis<br \/>\nMilwaukee is 1-4 SU in its last 5 games when playing St. Louis<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sunday Night Baseball FREE PICK for Milwaukee Brewers vs St. Louis Cardinals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pick: St. Louis Cardinals<\/p>\n<p>ESPN Sunday Night Baseball Prediction (Shea Matthews\u2019 record: 5-3)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Baseball &#8211; Sunday Night Contest<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Get paid to watch TV?
