Milwaukee Brewers vs. St. Louis Cardinals Spread, Line, Odds, Predictions, Picks and Betting Preview

Sportsgrid-Staff

Brewers @ Cardinals – First Pitch: 7:45 p.m.

Expected Forecast: Overcast Clouds, 73°
 

The Cardinals vs. Brewers MLB game is a contest of significance, with both teams eager for victory. The Cardinals, riding on a good run, need to maintain momentum. The matchup between Jack Flaherty for the Cardinals and Freddy Peralta for Milwaukee, with a total set at 8, promises intrigue.

Flaherty’s recent form raises eyebrows. Over the past month, he’s been struggling with a high xFIP of nearly 5. Left-handed batters have been particularly troublesome for him, with a .504 weighted on-base percentage (wOBA) over 57 plate appearances in the last 30 days. Right-handed hitters have had a field day, too, with a wOBA of .352.

On the other hand, the Brewers’ lineup poses a conundrum. Only two players, Christian Yelich and Rowdy Tellez, have above-average wOBA, .370 and .389, respectively. The rest of the lineup has been subpar, leaving the team in a predicament against a struggling pitcher.

St. Louis hopes to ride on the wave of their batting success. They have an impressive record of 12-6-1 to the over this year in St. Louis. Their key hitters, Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt, have a strong career record against Peralta, each going 7 of 19 with a combined five home runs. If these big bats continue their form, they could potentially tip the scale in favor of the Cardinals.

The Cardinals vs. Brewers game presents an intriguing battle between a struggling pitcher and a predominantly underperforming lineup. With the Cardinals’ batting prowess on their side, it will be interesting to see if they can outscore the Brewers.
