The Pittsburgh Pirates will go against the Cincinnati Reds in MLB action in Great American Ball Park, OH, on Wednesday, September 14, 2022, at 12:35 PM ET.

 

The Pittsburgh Pirates are presently 3-7 in their past 10 games, continuing their downward trend as a result of their poor performance.

 

Additionally, they trail the San Diego Padres by 24.5 games in the race for the last NL Wild Card slot. In the NL Central, the Pirates sit, regrettably, 30.5 games behind the St. Louis Cardinals.

 

Roansy Contreras will get the start for the Pirates in the circle. He presently has a record of 5-4, a 3.29 ERA, and a 1.30 WHIP. He only allowed the Cardinals four hits and one earned run during his last start, which lasted 5.1 innings.

 

This season, he also performed admirably on the road, going 2-1 with a 3.38 ERA. Unfortunately, the Pittsburgh bullpen did not prove much, giving up 4.68 runs per game right now.

 

Given how poorly they were doing all season, this is the 27th highest bullpen ERA in the league.

 

  • The Pittsburgh Pirates are 4-2 SU in their previous 6 matches. 
  • Pittsburgh is 7-3 SU in their last 10 matches against Cincinnati. 
  • The total went UNDER in 4 of Pittsburgh’s previous 5 matches on the road.

Pittsburgh Pirates vs Cincinnati Reds Predictions 9/14/2022

 

The Cincinnati Reds are now 26 games behind the St. Louis Cardinals for first place in the NL Central, placing them in fourth place.

 

Their ordinary performance did not bring them any closer to the postseason, as they are 5-5 in their last ten games. Additionally, the Reds are 20 games out of the last NL Wild Card place.

 

Nick Lodolo will get the start for the Reds in the circle. He presently has a record of 4-5, a 3.78 ERA, and a 1.30 WHIP. He threw for 8.0 innings the previous time he was on the mound, giving up just 5 hits and 2 earned runs against the Milwaukee Brewers.

 

This year, Lodolo also performed admirably at home, where he has a record of 3-2 with a 2.57 ERA. Currently giving up 4.71 runs per game, the Reds bullpen struggled.

 

Due to their poor performance this year, the bullpen has the third-highest ERA in the league.

 

  • The Cincinnati Reds are 0-5 SU in their last 5 matches. 
  • Cincinnati is 1-4 SU in their last 5 matches at home. 
  • The total went UNDER in 4 of Cincinnati’s last 5 matches at home against Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh Pirates vs Cincinnati Reds. The MLB pick for this game is the Cincinnati Reds. Despite the Reds’ persistent fielding issues, the Pirates are surrendering the 28th fewest runs per game.

 

Although neither of these teams has an advantage in the bullpen, the Reds have the upper hand on the mound to begin this game.

 

The Reds will gradually wear out Roansy Contreras while Lodolo keeps the Pirates from scoring. As Cincinnati is gaining an early lead, this game will be close for long. The Cincinnati Reds will win to a predicted score of 6-3.
