St Louis Cardinals vs Philadelphia Phillies Predictions 7/1/2022

As a substitute starter, Bailey Falter will make his eighth start of the year. Falter struggled in his previous outing against the Nationals on June 17, surrendering three runs over five innings, earning a no-decision in a game the Phillies won 8-7.

The rookie left-hander, who started in three of his seven outings this season, struggled overall, with a 4.50 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, a 0-2 record in 20 innings, and other poor stats. In this match, Falter is facing the Cards for the first time in his short career.

In the absence of Harper, the Phillies need Nick Castellanos to step up. Castellanos had a difficult month of June, recording just nine RBIs.

The 30-year-old slugger only hit seven home runs, but he also has 37 RBIs and a.674 OPS. Last year, Castellanos had a stunning 1.1 OPS versus the Cardinals.

The Phillies are scoring 4.76 runs on average, which ranks them eighth nationally. With a 3.86 team ERA, the pitching staff ranks 15th in the major leagues.

The total went UNDER in 4 of Philadelphia’s last 5 matches against St. Louis.

St. Louis Cardinals vs Philadelphia Phillies. The MLB pick for this game is the St. Louis Cardinals. When Miles Mikolas is in the circle, the Cardinals make for a wise wager.

The right-hander is in good form right now, giving up only five runs overall in his past four outings, which included 29 innings. His numbers are even better on the road when he has a season ERA of 2.53. Eflin was scheduled to start this game for the Phillies, however, he was placed on the IL.

The Phillies’ starter Bailey Falter, who gave up 8 runs (five earned) in his past two starts that totaled just 8 innings, should be exploited by the Cards.
