Cardinals vs. D-Backs Best Bets

Friday, August 19, 2022 - 9:40PM ET

PICK: St. Louis Cardinals Team Total Over 5 (-104)

PICK: Paul Goldschmidt 3+ Total Bases (+155)

The St Louis Cardinals take their red hot bats to the desert as they begin a 3 game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. If you haven't already signed up for BetMGM, this is the perfect time to do so by clicking ➡️ here ⬅️ for $20 free + a risk-free bet up to $1,000! 

St Louis is coming off a 13-0 home win against Colorado yesterday and have won 4 in a row scoring a total of 29 runs in those games.

Their offense gets another favorable matchup tonight as Arizona will send rookie Tommy Henry to the mound.

In 3 starts Henry is 2-1 with a 4.17 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP but most importantly, he is a lefty and the Cardinals smash lefties.

St. Louis is hitting .269 vs southpaws while averaging 5.69 runs per 9 innings. MVP candidate Paul Goldscmidt, especially loves hitting against southpaws.

Goldie has an average of .429 and an ISO of .404 against lefties this season. He has eclipsed 3 plus bases in each of his last 3 games and 5 of his last 7.

He is also going up against his former team so there should be added incentive to put on a show.

I like Goldie and the Cards to have a very nice offensive night.
