St. Louis Cardinals vs Colorado Rockies 4/12/2023 Picks Predictions Previews

The St. Louis Cardinals will go against the Colorado Rockies in MLB action in Coors Field, CO, on Wednesday, April 12, 2023, at 3:10 PM ET.

The St. Louis Cardinals, who won the NL Central Division title in 2022, had a sluggish start to this season. This year, injuries to Adam Wainwright and the departure of Jose Quintana to free agency hurt the Cards’ rotation.

The Cards lost to the Rockies 7-4 on Monday night, dropping their record to 3-7 for the year. The Cardinals’ defeat made it six defeats in their previous seven games.

Jordan Walker, a rookie player, was a bright spot as he hit in 10 consecutive matches. Kyle Freeland and Miles Mikolas squared off on Tuesday night.

On Wednesday afternoon, Jack Flaherty will take the bump for the Cardinals. In each of his previous three seasons, Flaherty struggled with injuries, but his 1-1 start with a 1.80 ERA is encouraging.

Throughout his 10 innings of work, Flaherty gave up just four hits and two runs. There were 13 walks and only seven strikeouts so far, indicating that he has problems finding the strike zone.

The Cardinals are likely to limit Flaherty’s innings in this situation in order to maintain their caution with him.

The total went UNDER in 6 of St. Louis’ last 7 matches.
The St. Louis Cardinals are 2-6 SU in their last 8 matches.
The St. Louis Cardinals are 4-1 SU in their last 5 matches against Colorado.

St. Louis Cardinals vs Colorado Rockies Predictions 4/12/2023

Without making any significant changes, the Colorado Rockies figure to be a second-division team once more this season after dropping from fourth to fifth place in the NL West Division last year.

After defeating the Cardinals 7-4 on Monday night, Colorado has a 5-6 record so far this season. Nevertheless, the news wasn’t all good as the game’s starter, German Marquez, was forced to leave due to tightness in his forearm.

On Tuesday night, the Rockies aimed to make it two in a row.

On Wednesday in the afternoon, the Rockies will give the ball to Jose Urena, a right-hander. Urena is off to a bad start with 12 hits and 8 earned runs allowed in just 5 innings.

In his two starts, he struck out only once while walking seven times and allowing 3 home runs. In 44 innings over the course of 10 starts in 2022 at Coors Field, Urena struggled and gave up 54 hits.

Throughout that time, he had a record of 2-5 and a 6.14 ERA. In ten home appearances, he gave up seven home runs.

The total went OVER in 4 of Colorado’s last 5 matches.
The Colorado Rockies are 3-7 SU in their last 10 matches.
The total went OVER in 6 of Colorado’s last 8 matches against St. Louis.

St. Louis Cardinals vs Colorado Rockies. The MLB pick for this game is the St. Louis Cardinals. Last year, Urena had a horrible home and away records, with an ERA above six when playing at home.

After giving up 7 hits and 6 runs in just 2.2 innings in his first home start of the year, things did not improve much at all.

In keeping with an unsettling pattern of coughing up long balls at home for Urena, he also allowed two home runs. In eleven starts at home the previous year, he gave up seven.

On Wednesday afternoon against Urena, with temperatures predicted to be in the 80s, count on the Cardinals’ potent middle of the order to put up some runs.

While the Cardinals continue to score runs, Flaherty should be able to hold down the fort thanks to a potent Cardinals bullpen. The St. Louis Cardinals will win to a predicted score of 9-4.
