Neither team has been hitting the ball well the last few days, but St. Louis broke out of their shell last night with a ton of runs and this is the time of year in which the cream rises to the top in division play. I think the Cardinals are the best team in their division and its just a matter of time before they catch fire and run away with it. Take St. Louis

Winnipeg @ B.C. LIONS
Winnipeg +11 -106 over B.C. LIONS
We have to apologize for last week’s recommended pick of the Lions on the road over the Argonauts. We’ve been suggesting that the Lions have looked out of sorts the entire season thus far and that was never more evident in that disgusting display in Toronto. That game was on Tuesday and now, just four days later, the Lions are a huge 11-point choice against a Blue Bombers club that has had eight days to prepare. That’s a huge difference and one that should not be overlooked.
Winnipeg still scored 24 points last week against Calgary with Justin Goltz filling in for Buck Pierce. Earlier this week, Bombers head coach named Goltz his starting QB for the rest of the season and that should have this very capable, four-year backup much more relaxed and confident out there. Goltz is coming on. He seems to be getting better with each passing quarter that he plays. Goltz gets receiver Chris Matthews back for this game and even if Matthews is a bit rusty, the Lions have to pay attention to him. Winnipeg is just 1-4 but they are heading in the right direction. Of their four losses, only one of them has been a poor effort. Winnipeg played nose to nose with the Stamps last week and trailed by just three at the half. A 10-0 third quarter did them in but they didn’t give up and scored 10 points in the final frame.
Both the Lions defense and offense was horrible last week in a crushing defeat in Toronto. Yeah, they figure to be better here but just one of their wins came by more than the margin offered here and that came against Edmonton in a rainstorm. Remember, the Lions have been blown out twice this season already, once by the Argos and once by the Stamps. Two of B.C's three wins were against the reeling Eskies. The Lions do not warrant this billing on normal rest and certainly don't warrant it on three days rest. Upset possibility.
Our Pick
Winnipeg +11 -106 (Risking 2.12 units - To Win: 2.00)
