Prediction: Arizona Diamondbacks VS St. Louis Cardinals 2025-05-24
The Arizona Diamondbacks are heading to Busch Stadium to take on the St. Louis Cardinals, and I've got my eyes on this one. The Diamondbacks are packing some serious heat with their offense, ranking third in baseball with a slugging percentage of .448 and fourth-best in MLB with 70 total home runs. Corbin Carroll is leading the charge with 15 home runs, so the Cardinals' pitching staff better be ready.
On the other hand, the Cardinals have a solid pitching staff with a 3.74 ERA and a 1.216 WHIP this season. Miles Mikolas has been on fire, allowing one earned run or less in four of his previous five starts. He's got a clear path to success, inducing ground balls, which should work well against the Diamondbacks.
The Cardinals have covered the 1st Five Innings (F5) Run Line in 24 of their last 36 games, making them a good bet. With Mikolas on the mound and the Cardinals' lineup, which ranks seventh in the majors in runs per game, I think they've got this one in the bag.
My best bet for this game is the St. Louis Cardinals -1.5 at 1.5 (FanDuel) or 1.47 (LowVig.ag). The Cardinals' strong pitching and offense make them a solid choice, and I'm confident they'll take down the Diamondbacks. Don't @ me.
