Pittsburgh Pirates vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Lou Aguila | in MLB Picks
The St. Louis Cardinals will shoot for a 4-0 sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday at Busch Stadium in St. Louis Missouri. With barely two weeks remaining in the regular season, the Cardinals don’t have much time to make one final run at the last wild-card playoff spot, which is currently occupied by the Arizona Diamondbacks. St. Louis is trailing the D-Backs by seven games, and with 11 games left on their schedule, it’s obvious that they are now out of contention. Still, the Cardinals want to finish their 2024 MLB campaign strong. A win against the Pirates will keep them on course to finish the season with a winning record. The Pirates, meanwhile, are trying not to finish last in their National League Central standings. They are right now 2.5 games behind the No.4 team in their division, the Cincinnati Reds (74-79). Pittsburgh has lost five of their last seven games and four consecutive games on the road.
