I am going to call four stolen bases in the WC game for the Cards against the terrible catching of the Dodgers.

Dodgers allowed 109 SB's this year, by far the most in the NL, and second in MLB. The Cards allowed 41 SB's.

Defense, and team speed never take the day off. The Cards are easily the best defensive team in MLB as well.

I don't think any team wants to play the Cardinals right now. They're getting back Flaherty, and Dakota Hudson. Flaherty is rounding back into form, and is fresh, and is one of top half-dozen pitchers in the league when he is right.

Edit to add...4th best WHIP among ALL current MLB starters, with two of the three above him hurt (Kershaw and DeGrom).
