St. Louis Cardinals vs Chicago Cubs Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Carlos Zabala | in MLB Picks
The Cubs seem to be sinking, however the fight for the wild card spot leaves any team on the brink of the playoffs in the MLB. The offense shows no signs of life, since June 6 they have not made more than 4 runs. To make matters worse, they lost game 1 against their rival the Cardinals, before they had lost series against the Rays and Reds. Cubs have a pretty bad divisional record of 8-16. Kyle Gibson struck out 6 Cubs and did not allow ER, the Cubs only had 3 hits and led the game 3-0, being favorites with odds of -125 in a game that barely lasted 2:28. The Cardinals won their last two series and already have the Cubs in check. The Cardinals bullpen has improved notably, they are now 13th best with an ERA of 3.66, but in their last 10 games they have an ERA of 2.57 and a WHIP of 0.97. Helsley saved another game on Friday, is always available for the Cardinals' close games, which are many, and is the MLB leader in Saves with 22. Imanaga, a strong Cy Young candidate, will pitch for the Cubs with an ERA of 1.96. The Cubs won in their last outing against the Reds, but nevertheless, they have hit at least 1 HR in each of their last 3 outings and in two of them Imanaga did not reach 5 IPLimited Offer.

Our St. Louis Cardinals vs Chicago Cubs Prediction
Because of Imanaga's great season and for no other reason, the Cubs are favorites again on Saturday vs Cardinals. Cubs have a 4-4 record as road favorites. The Cardinals won the last 2 games as slight underdogs and have a 3-0 streak against the Cubs in 2024. Imanaga has never faced the Cardinals, but this could be more of an advantage for the Japanese. Pallante will be the Cardinals' starter with a great presence and an ERA of 1.80 in his last 5 starts. The current low hitting of the Cubs and Cardinals has caused them to have made Game Total Under 6 and 7 times respectively in the last 10 games for each. Our prediction for Cardinals vs Cubs is: Under 8, -110 at FanDuel.
