Miles Mikolas Draws Cardinals' Opening Day Nod

Mike Shildt had alluded to Miles Mikolas possibly starting the season opener a couple of times already this spring, including strongly so on Friday, but the manager made it official Saturday morning. Mikolas then backed up that decision by tossing two perfect innings at the Miami Marlins.
