This article is part of our Weekly Hitter Rankings series.
St. Louis has been one of the more productive offenses since the break, and it's about to get better. The Redbirds have seven games a home, facing the suspect Athletics and Mets pitching staffs. They should also be able to run a bit, especially when the Mets are in town.
Overall, it's not a busy week, with only six clubs playing seven games. The San Diego Padres join the Cardinals with seven home affairs. The Arizona Diamondbacks and Seattle Mariners are on the road for seven.
The Cubs, White Sox, Reds, Twins, Phillies and Blue Jays all play just five games.
The Rockies play six, but they're all at home.
