St Louis Cardinals vs New York Mets 3/20/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

The St. Louis Cardinals will go against the New York Mets in MLB action in First Data Field Port St Lucie, FL, on Sunday, March 20, 2022, at 1:10 PM ET. The Cardinals were slow to make a huge move, but when they finally did, it was a significant one.

On Nov. 29, the team obtained starter Steven Matz, a left-handed pitcher who recently rediscovered his feet. In a rotation that features Adam Wainwright, Dakota Hudson, Jack Flaherty, Miles Mikolas, and a bevy of other names pushing for a slot, he’ll likely be the No. 3 or 4 starter.

T.J. McFarland was re-signed by the Cardinals early in the summer, and Yadier Molina and Adam Wainwright were signed to one-year contracts for 2022 later in the regular season.

St. Louis would benefit from adding another bat, perhaps a lefty explosive bat, to their roster. The advent of the designated hitter in the new CBA opens up a host of new options.

After the Cubs’ terrible 2021 season, former slugger Kyle Schwarber and Joc Pederson could be intriguing options. Otherwise, it’s possible that improvements will have to be restricted to a bare minimum.

The Cardinals are 2-3 in their last 5 matches.
St. Louis is 3-2 in their last 5 matches against the spread.
The St. Louis Cardinals are 19-18 in their road matches against the spread.

St Louis Cardinals vs New York Mets Predictions 3/20/2022

Before the lockout, the Mets were one of the most active clubs in the free-agent market, and it’s uncertain whether they’ll continue to add to a group that already appears to be deep enough to compete in the National League East.

Max Scherzer, outfielders Starling Marte and Mark Canha, and infielder Eduardo Escobar are among the “new” Mets, as is manager Buck Showalter. The Mets want to sign another starting pitcher and a left-handed reliever; the only question is how much more money they’re ready to spend.

Injury to important players, bad performances from players like Michael Conforto, Jeff McNeil, and Francisco Lindor, and disagreement inside the organization and among players made the previous year a significant disappointment.

The Mets started the 2021 season 35-25, and at the All-Star break, they were in first place in the National League East. The Mets faltered along the way, surrendering first place to the Atlanta Braves in early August.

The Mets were removed from playoff contention on September 25 after a 2–1 defeat to the Milwaukee Brewers, extending their five-year playoff drought.

The Mets are 1-4 in their last 5 matches.
New York is 2-3 in their last 5 matches against the spread.
The totals went OVER in 1 of the Mets’ last 5 matches.

St. Louis Cardinals vs New York Mets. The MLB pick for this game is the St. Louis Cardinals. Right-handers Alex Reyes, Flaherty, and Jordan Hicks are second-year qualified for arbitration, while outfielder Tyler O’Neill, right-hander Dakota Hudson, and closer Giovanny Gallegos are first-year qualified.

On the 40-man roster, there are four unfilled spaces. Nolan Gorman, the club’s top positional prospect and the No. 24 overall prospect according to MLB Pipeline, could fill one of the positions. Aside from that, the Cards have some roster flexibility to add players. The Cardinals will win to a predicted score of 6-4.
