Analysis
This Sunday series finale is set for 12:10 p.m. ET between the Cardinals and the Reds, a contest that will end the St. Louis road trip. Cincinnati is slightly favoured in the latest Cardinals vs Reds odds and this is due in part to the Cincinnati pitching match-up. Both teams have something to play for in this game as the Cardinals are still in the Wild Card race and an outright win will help their cause, whereas the Reds are trying to maintain their current Wild Card standing after disappointing results in their last few series. Cincinnatti do hold the edge in the offensive department, though the St. Louis Cardinals also have their own top-of-the-lineup bats in Willson Contreras and Alec Burleson. The Reds will start Brady Singer (11-9, 4.06 ERA) and he’ll face off against Andre Pallante (6-12, 5.44 ERA). Singer has been quite consistent and serviceable and he does have the benefit of starting the game in his home park, which does provide an edge. Singer and the Reds have had success against Pallante this season, having held him to two ER or less in each of their past three meetings (April 29, May 13 and August 22). The Cardinals right hander has not had a good season at all as his ERA paints a picture of an opponent the Reds lineup should be able to put up a runs against and he may need big days from his lineup if he’s going to keep the Reds in check for the whole game. Jim's Play: 951. Reds
