AGAINST ST. LOUIS: This will be Odorizzi's fourth career start against the Cardinals... across his previous three starts he is 1-1 with a 3.24 ERA (16.2 IP, 6 ER), 17 strikeouts, eight walks and four home runs...his last start came at St. Louis on August 25, 2017 where he did not factor in the decision after 3.2 innings, allowed three runs on three hits, struck out four and waked four...at Busch Stadium he is 1-0 with a 4.82 ERA across two starts.

Has surrendered eight home runs this season, tied for eighth most in the AL. STILL NEED HELP: In Odorizzi's seven starts in 2018, the Twins offense has supplied 14 total runs, good for a run support average of 3.38 run per game...his run support average is lowest on the team among starters with at-least three starts.

HARD TO HIT IN 2017: Odorizzi started 12 games in 2017 where he allowed three-orfewer hits, including a span of five games from September 5-29 where he allowed three-or-fewer hits in each game...this streak ties for the longest of any starter in baseball, last season...since the start of 2016, he has made 19 starts allowing threeor-fewer hits, most in the AL over that span HIGHS CAREER HIGHS CAREER NOTES 2018 MISC.
