Thompson in line to start 2nd for Cards
Zack Thompson will start the second game of the season on Friday against the Dodgers. Thompson will take the ball after Opening Day starter Miles Mikolas faces the Dodgers on Thursday. It’ll be Lance Lynn, Steven Matz and Kyle Gibson following him to open the season. There’s zero appeal here for fantasy managers, unless you’re considering a DFS lineup stack with the Dodgers in this matchup.
Miller terrific in final Spring Performance
Bobby Miller was terrific in his final spring tune-up on Sunday, striking out five batters over 4 2/3 innings of scoreless baseball against the Angels. Miller scattered four hits and one walk on the evening. His five strikeout victims were Brandon Drury, Mickey Moniak (twice), Taylor Ward and Zach Neto. Miller generated just eight swings and misses on 80 pitches in the contest, posting a solid CSW of 30 percent. He’s set to make his regular season debut on Friday night at home against the Cardinals.
