Our Arizona Diamondbacks vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
St. Louis is a slight favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. Part of the reason for this is how terrible Kelly has been this season. Especially at home, Kelly has made six starts, in which he has allowed 27 earned runs over 32.2 innings.
The Cardinals also have the better overall offense, ranking 15th in terms of runs per game, while the Diamondbacks are 19th in the same category. Given that Arizona looks to be at a disadvantage with Kelly on the mound, our Arizona Diamondbacks vs St. Louis Cardinals prediction is: St. Louis Cardinals ML.
