St. Louis Cardinals vs Pittsburgh Pirates 4/8/25 MLB Free Pick
Alright, let's dive into the upcoming MLB game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Cardinals are coming in on a rough four-game losing streak, while the Pirates are riding a two-game win streak. Momentum aside, let's look at some key stats to help guide your betting decision.
Currently, the Cardinals sit in the 3rd position with four wins and six losses. They've been strong at home with a 4-2 record, but have struggled on the road so far with a 0-4 record. Their points-for average is at 6.9, closely matched by their points-against average at 6.8. This high scoring average could be a result of their power rating of -50.33, indicating they've had some rough games.
The Pirates, on the other hand, are in the 5th position with four wins and seven losses. Their home and away records are pretty even: 2-2 at home and 2-5 on the road. Scoring has been a bit more of an issue for the Pirates, with an average of only 3.2 points per game, while their defense has been a bit stronger, allowing 5.4 points per game. Their power rating is 88.79, suggesting they've been performing better in recent games.
Now, let's look at the game odds. The Cardinals' point spread is at 1.5 with odds of -195, while the Pirates' point spread is at -1.5 with odds of +165. This suggests that the bookies are favoring the Cardinals to snap their losing streak and pull off a win, despite their recent struggles and being on the road. The money line is +116 for the Cardinals and -139 for the Pirates, which is more favorable for the Cardinals.
The over/under line for the game is set at 6.5 with odds of -105 for both. This is a bit tricky as the Cardinals have been scoring high but also allowing a good amount of points, while the Pirates have been more defense-oriented.
In conclusion, while the Cardinals have been on a losing streak, their overall performance this season suggests they have the potential to bounce back. However, the Pirates' recent win streak and home advantage could boost their chances. With the given odds, if you're feeling risky, a bet on the Cardinals could be rewarding. However, a safer bet would be on the under, considering the Pirates' low-scoring games.
Remember, in sports betting, it's all about analyzing the stats, understanding the odds, and a bit of luck. Good luck with your betting!
