Two young starters searching for consistency will try to find it Wednesday night in the rubber game of a three-game series between the San Diego Padres and St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.

Padres left-hander Eric Lauer (2-4, 6.64 ERA) is undergoing on-the-job training with mostly painful results, while Cardinals right-hander Luke Weaver (3-5, 4.35) has won once in his last 10 starts, struggling to put hitters away and frequently running up high pitch counts.

The last start for each summarized their seasons. Lauer suffered a 4-0 loss Friday night in Miami, while Weaver was no-decisioned in a 7-6, 10-inning victory that same evening in Cincinnati as each failed to command the strike zone.

Lauer was shelled in a 9-5 loss to St. Louis at Petco Park on May 11, allowing four homers and six runs over 2.1 innings before getting hooked.

Weaver, who pitched well over the last two months of the 2017 season, came out of the gate strong in 2018 with two wins in his first three starts. But Weaver has lasted 7.0 or more innings just two times in his last 10 outings, taxing a bullpen that hasn’t exactly been a model of consistency.

Weaver has stumped San Diego (32-37) in both career outings, winning both and not allowing a run over 12.0 innings.

The St. Louis Cardinals are 20-14 at home this season and are solid favorites to beat the San Diego Padres who are 13-16 on the road this season. The Cardinals have a better than 55% chance of winning based on 10,000 game simulations generated one play at a time by the AccuScore Simulation Supercomputer. Cardinals\' starter Luke Weaver is forecasted to have a better game than Padres\' starter Eric Lauer. Luke Weaver has a 43% chance of having a Quality Start (QS) while Eric Lauer has a 25% chance of a QS. If Luke Weaver has a quality start the Cardinals has a 73% chance of winning. His simulated strikeout to walk ratio is 4.1 and he has a 35% chance of having a 5 to 1 K/BB ratio. When he has a 5/1 ratio the Cardinals win 64%. In Eric Lauer quality starts the Padres win 59%. He has a 18% chance of having a 5 to 1 K/BB ratio and if he does his team wins 59% of simulations. In simulations we tracked the batter for each team that was most productive based his average hits, walks and RBI per simulation. The most productive batter for the St. Louis Cardinals is Jose Martinez who averaged 2.45 hits+walks+RBI. He has a 44% chance of having a big game with 3+ Hits, Walks, RBI and if he has a big game the Cardinals have a 67% chance of winning. The most productive batter for the San Diego Padres is Eric Hosmer who averaged 2.13 hits+walks+RBI.

1. Harrison Bader (R) RF
2. Tommy Pham (R) CF
3. Jose Martinez (R) 1B
4. Marcell Ozuna (R) LF
5. Yadier Molina (R) C
6. Jedd Gyorko (R) 3B
7. Yairo Munoz (R) SS
8. Kolten Wong (L) 2B
9. Luke Weaver (R) P

I don't know why it takes the Padres so long to post their lineups.

Keeping him close for a big league call up would be my guess.

Yikes another start without Fowler.

Mo can't be too happy.

Might be time to move Bader to CF when he plays.
