Toronto Blue Jays vs St. Louis Cardinals. The MLB pick for this game is the St. Louis Cardinals.

After a rough showing on opening day, the pitching staff for the Cardinals much improved on Saturday, making it a solid comeback effort for St. Louis. O

ne run was given up by the bullpen, but it was just Jordan Hicks’ fault. Hicks had a tough time through the first two matches, surrendering three runs in 1.1 innings.

On Saturday, the remainder of the bullpen showed themselves to be extremely strong, and Montgomery is expected to have a strong outing.

Toronto did not hit a home run yet this year, but their opening-day output of 10 runs shows they can score without just hitting the big ball.

They must now demonstrate their ability to prevail behind strong pitching, which Bassitt is capable of doing. The Cardinals, who started off stronger than their opponents, will win this game by a slim margin.

The St. Louis Cardinals will win to a predicted score of 7-2.
