Who ya got?
Burnett, Cole, Liriano, Morton, Burnett
vs
Wainwright, Lynn, Kelly, Miller/Wacha, Wainwright
It looks like Matheny is putting Miller/Wacha in the 'pen for game 1, and maybe game 2. He'll start Joe Kelly in game 3 and whichever rookie is available for game 4.
Allen Craig (Paul's beloved Wrench) is out for the series so we'll get a full dose of Matt Adams at 1B, making the Cards' bench historically awful. Bench (huge) and bullpen (small) are the Pirates' biggest advantages, if Clint Hurdle can find a way to use them.
