CUBS VS CARDINALS PREDICTION
Williams has been terrible on the road this season and has pitched just once since late May as he was on the shelf with appendicitis. Williams was blasted on for six runs in only 3 2/3 innings in his last start and on the season the Cubs only have one win when he has started on the road. St. Louis does not have a dynamic lineup, to say the least, but they will get to Williams in this game in their house. The Cubs have been struggling to score with runners on base. Half of the Cubs team is on the trading block and the Cardinals tend to surge in the 2nd half of the season. Look for the Cards to get to Williams for another win.
