Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Marlins at Cardinals (8/22)

Needless to say, the Marlins have had better starts to a road trip.  But tonight is anew.

The Marlins starting pitcher is Scott Olsen.

The Cardinals are going with a familiar face to Marlins fans, Braden Looper.

Game time is 8:10 p.m.

Olsen pitched well in his last three starts though he only has one win to show for his efforts.  However, the team normally does pretty well in his starts going 7-4 in his last eleven.  If Scott can keep the ball in the ballpark, he should do fine.

Looper in his last two starts pitched really well, but August hasn't been kind to him in that he has a 5.64 ERA for the month.    Lefties give him the most problems.

Ichthyomancy is up and ready.

Here's today's Ichthyomancy pick table:
