St Louis Cardinals vs San Francisco Giants Predictions 5/6/2022

The San Francisco Giants grabbed a 1-0 lead in the top of the second inning, only to lose 9-1 to the Los Angeles Dodgers, who scored nine runs from the fourth inning on. San Francisco now lost five of their previous six matches and is in desperate need of a win.

San Francisco’s pitching staff was dominant early on and is still ranked sixth in the league with a 3.67 ERA. However, they were battered in their previous five games, surrendering 41 runs in that span. During that time, the starters have a 5.48 ERA, but the bullpen corps was terrible, with a 9.45 ERA in the previous five games.

The Giants’ bullpen still ranks ninth in the league with a 3.09 ERA, but it increased by nearly 1.5 runs in the previous week.

The total went OVER in 5 of San Francisco’s last 6 matches.
The San Francisco Giants are 1-6 SU in their last 7 matches.
The total went OVER in 12 of San Francisco’s last 18 matches against St. Louis.

St. Louis Cardinals vs San Francisco Giants. The MLB pick for this game is the St. Louis Cardinals. San Francisco needs to be liked statistically.

On paper, they are the better team, but the Cardinals are playing much better recently. This is particularly true of the pitching staff, which gave up 14 runs in their previous five matches.

The bullpen (3.21 ERA) was pitching better than San Francisco’s recently, and it will most likely be the difference in this game. Neither starter will go more than four or five innings, and the Giants’ bullpen is currently on the verge of collapse.

While San Francisco put together an excellent offensive, they struggled at home, ranking 19th in baseball with a .237 batting average.

The Cardinals thrived at home (11 home runs in 11 games), but their pitching staff ranks sixth in home runs surrendered. This effectively undermines San Francisco’s significant edge. The St. Louis Cardinals will win by a predicted score of 6-5.
