KEY GAME INFORMATION

ST LOUIS: 2017 83-79, third place
MANAGER Mike Matheny (seventh season)
ADDITIONS: LF Marcell Ozuna, RHP Miles Mikolas, RHP Luke Gregerson, RHP Bud Norris, INF-OF Yairo Munoz
SUBTRACTIONS: RHP Lance Lynn, OF Stephen Piscotty, OF Randal Grichuk, RHP Seung-hwan Oh, RHP Juan Nicasio, SS Aledmys Diaz, RHP Trevor Rosenthal
OUTLOOK: The Cardinals have had one losing season since the start of the century, but they are facing immense pressure from fans after finishing behind the Cubs and Brewers in 2017. St. Louis missed the playoffs for a second consecutive year, the first time that's happened since 2007-2008. For the Cardinals to snap that postseason "drought," they'll need bounce-back seasons from several players -- including a healthy Wainwright on the mound and Carpenter at the plate. Few expect the Cardinals to cede the NL Central title to Chicago for a third consecutive year without putting up a fight, but St. Louis will need Ozuna and Pham to produce as expected. If they do, and the Cardinals can bring along their reworked pitching staff, the potential for a return to the playoffs is there.

ATLANTA: 2017 72-90, third place
MANAGER Brian Snitker (third season)
ADDITIONS: RHP Brandon McCarthy, RHP Anibal Sanchez, LHP Scott Kazmir, INF Charlie Culberson, OF Preston Tucker, OF Ronald Acuna, 3B Austin Riley, OF Jeff Decker, 2B Christian Colon, RHP Shane Carle
SUBTRACTIONS: OF Matt Kemp, RHP R.A. Dickey, 3B Adonis Garcia, 1B Matt Adams, INF Jace Peterson, RHP Jason Motte
OUTLOOK: Teheran, Foltynewicz and Newcomb have provided reasons this spring to believe they can improve their 2017 numbers. For a change, the spring spotlight was on a position player; Acuna was hitting .432 with 4 home runs, 11 RBI and 4 steals when he was sent to minor league camp. The move involving the 20-year-old top prospect was expected. It was made to maintain an extra full season of contractual control down the road, but Acuna likely will be recalled in April and immediately start in left field. He could provide a needed power bat to help Freeman in the middle of the lineup. The Braves likely are still at least a year away from contending in the NL East, but improved starting pitching could push them closer to .500 this year.

PREVIEW

Braves' Sanchez faces Cardinals in storybook year

ATLANTA -- Anibal Sanchez was released by the Minnesota Twins in the middle of spring training and the 34-year-old right-hander needed another team to give him a chance.

The Atlanta Braves did just this, signing Sanchez to a minor league contract, and the former National League and American League standout has been an important rotation member for a team on top of the NL East.

Sanchez (6-5, 3.01 ERA) will make his 23 appearance and 22nd start for the Braves on Tuesday night, facing the St. Louis Cardinals in the middle of a three-game series at SunTrust Park.

The Cardinals, fighting for a wild-card spot in the National League, will start rookie left-hander Austin Gomber (5-1, 3.78 ERA) opposite Sanchez.

St. Louis (83-68) blasted four homers and won the series opener 11-6, but the Braves (83-67) had their magic number for winning the NL East reduced to seven when second-place Philadelphia also lost.

The Braves, who lead the Phillies by 7 1/2 games, have won just four of their past 17 games at SunTrust Park and are just 38-37 at home.

Sanchez last got credit for a victory on Aug. 3, but he has been as consistent as any member of the Braves rotation, never allowing more than four earned runs in any start.

Despite transitioning from a power pitcher to a finesse one, Sanchez has 118 strikeouts in 119 2/3 innings.

Sanchez has had issues with home runs, but none against him have come in the past four starts. Opponents are batting only .217 against him.

Sanchez got a no-decision in the Braves' 2-1 victory at San Francisco last Wednesday, yielding one run in six innings. He worked out of bases-loaded situations in the first and fourth innings thanks to double plays.

"Bend and not break," Braves manager Brian Snitker said. "He made some really good pitches when he had to, and to some really good hitters."

Gomber joined the Cardinals for good in late July and joined the rotation fulltime in early August.

The 24-year-old's first loss came in his most recent start, when he gave up seven runs in three innings to the Los Angeles Dodgers in St. Louis last Thursday.

Gomber had given up just eight earned runs in his previous six starts.

"Sometimes it just doesn't go your way," he said afterwards. "I felt like so far since I've been in the rotation I've given us a chance to win, and tonight I didn't. Five days from now, hopefully, we are having a different conversation."

The Braves swept a three-game series in St. Louis but has lost seven in a row to the Cardinals in Atlanta.
