Prop Bets: St. Louis Cardinals VS Chicago White Sox 2025-06-19
Cardinals vs. White Sox Prediction: "The Houser Fedde Fed Up"
June 19, 2025 | St. Louis Cardinals (-160) at Chicago White Sox (+150)
The St. Louis Cardinals, fresh off Brendan Donovan’s four-hit heroics, roll into Chicago as decisive favorites (-160) to avoid another "White Sox screensaver" game—by which we mean a score so low, it’s mistaken for a paused sports highlight reel. Their starter, Erick Fedde, faces Adrian Houser, who’ll hope to out-pitch Fedde just enough to keep the White Sox from losing by more than 1.5 runs on the spread (-1.5 for STL, +1.5 for CWS).
Key Stats & Odds:
- Cardinals: 50% win rate when favored. Their magic number to avoid being "mathematically mediocre" is 1.
- White Sox: 31.5% win rate as underdogs. Their offense is like a WiFi signal—flickers occasionally but rarely connects.
- Total Runs: 8.0 (Over/Under). Bet the Under if you’ve ever seen a MLB game in the 21st century.
Player Prop to Watch:
- Brendan Donovan: Will he go 3-for-5 with a laughable level of consistency? Over .500 BA is a solid prop if you’re into self-sabotage.
Prediction: The Cardinals win 4-2, because even Fedde knows 8 runs is a "modest evening’s work." The White Sox will likely score exactly 1 run, just to nod politely at the Over/Under before slinking back to their .319 underdog win percentage.
Final Score: STL 4, CWS 2. The White Sox’s season? Still a work in progress.
Place your bets accordingly, and remember: The Cardinals are favored, but they’re also 38-35. Which means, statistically, they’ll either win or "it’s too early to tell." 🎲⚾
