Free Betting Pick: Saint Louis Cardinals +110
These two rivals are fighting for a playoff berth, but the Chicago Cubs have dealt with injuries as of recent which will hold this team back here. Jose Quintana has struggled as of recent as he given up 4 earned runs or more in his last 3 starts, and that won’t fly against a good Cardinals team. Michael Wacha is coming off one of his better starts of the season and given Chicago’s struggles with their bats against the Reds, I think Goldschmidt and Ozuna can cause some damage here. Final Score Prediction, Saint Louis Cardinals win 5-4.
