St. Louis Cardinals:
Pitching Analysis
The St. Louis Cardinals will have Miles Mikolas on the mound. Mikolas has had a decent season with a 4.44 ERA and 1.38 WHIP. While he has been solid, the Marlins have a strong lineup that could challenge him.
Hitting Analysis
The Cardinals have hitters like Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt who can contribute to their offensive production. However, they may face a tough challenge against the Marlins' pitching staff.
Injuries
The Cardinals have a few players dealing with injuries, which could impact their overall performance. It remains to be seen how these injuries will affect their gameplay against the Marlins.
Miami Marlins:
Pitching Analysis
The Miami Marlins will send Braxton Garrett to the mound. Garrett has shown promise with a 3.53 ERA and 1.13 WHIP. He has the potential to stifle the Cardinals' hitters and give the Marlins an advantage.
Hitting Analysis
The Marlins have a balanced lineup with players like Jorge Soler and Luis Arraez leading the way. They have the ability to generate runs and put pressure on the Cardinals' pitching staff.
Injuries
The Marlins have dealt with a few injuries, but they have shown resilience and have players who can step up and contribute to their success.
Prediction
Considering the pitching matchup and the Marlins' strong hitting and home-field advantage, we predict that the Miami Marlins will come out on top in this game. With Braxton Garrett on the mound and their balanced lineup, the Marlins have a solid chance to outperform the Cardinals and secure the victory. Braxton Garret has been absolutely insane on the mound allowing no more than 1 run in his last 4 starts and the Marlins have won 8 of the last 9 games with him on the mound while the Cards have lost 5 straight games with Mikolas as a starter.
Pick: Marlins ML -130
