ML: BOS -115 / STL -105
Total: O/U 8.
8:15PM EST: Cardinals ML -105.
BOS starter Brayan Bello came back from the IL last week and allowed 2 runs over 5 innings but he really didn't pitch very well. WSH ran into 3 outs on the basepaths, lined out 3 times, and 3 of their 5 Hard-Hit balls resulted in outs. He faces a Cardinals offense that’s finally come alive, hitting .292 with a .790 OPS over their last 5 games. Former MVP Paul Goldschmidt turning it back on has a lot to do with that.
STL starter Kyle Gibson has a 2.1 ERA over his last 5 starts, never allowing more than 2 earned runs. He shut out Boston the last time he saw them at the end of 2023 as a member of the Orioles. The Red Sox offense has been cold, batting .225 with a .654 OPS in May, averaging just 3.2 runs per game. The Cardinals also had the day off yesterday, so their bullpens freshly rested. Boston used 5 relievers and all their high leverage arms in a loss to TB last night.
