"It starts with our pitchers," said the Reds manager after sweeping the Dodgers, something that had not happened to the Dodgers in 2024. They won game 3 against Yamamoto and all odds in a Bullpen game. Now they face the Cardinals in a key series. Lodolo will come off the injured list where he usually is. But no one can deny that when healthy he is the ace the Reds need. Lance Lynn pitched 6IP for the Cardinals with no ER allowed. But before that solid outing he had been quite inconsistent, prior to that outing he had allowed 12 ER in 14.2 IP. The Cardinals are going through a sweet moment similar to that of the Reds, winning their last 3 series including a sweep against the Orioles. They have a 4-win streak and have the 6th best OBP with 325 in May. It has been difficult for the Cardinals to have positive streaks like the one they have today, because when after a win, the average pitching ERA is 4.31. It is a series of hot lineups against starters who are always a mystery in their performance.

Our Cincinnati Reds vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction

In conclusion, both teams are on an upward curve. Especially in hitting, it will be the first time they meet in 2024. In 2023, the games between the Reds and Cardinals were characterized by many runs. We expect the same considering that veteran Lynn and Lodolo have both had problems going deep in their starts. Steer, De la Cruz, Donovan and Nootbaar are some of the hot bats this series will bring. Our prediction for Cardinals vs Reds is: Over 9.5, +100 at FanDuel.
