Todd Wellemeyer of the St. Louis Cardinals and Jeff Suppan of the Milwaukee Brewers are both off of their form right now, so look for these teams to reach double-digits combined tonight.

Now granted, Wellemeyer had a nice outing vs. the San Francisco Giants in his last start, but that snapped a string of seven straight starts without a Quality Start. He has a much tougher assignment tonight vs. a potent Milwaukee lineup that is batting .287 vs. right-handed pitching over the last 10 games. Wellemeyer has also been awful on the road this season despite his 3-2 away record, as he owns a poor 5.60 ERA and 1.67 WHIP when traveling.

Similarly, Suppan is also coming off of his best effort in a while vs. the Chicago Cubs, but he still has a 5.09 ERA and 1.64 WHIP over his last three starts. While one would think Suppan should have success vs. the Cardinals after pitching for them for so long, that was not the case the last time he faced them as he allowed five earned runs on seven hits while lasting only 3.2 innings here in Miller Park on May 26.

We look for both starter to bounce off of their improved outings last time out and revert back to their normal mediocre forms tonight.
