LOSS
Cleveland Guardians at St. Louis Cardinals
St. Louis wins by over 1.5 runs
1.5u
lead play
ANALYSIS
Our pick capitalizes on a severe rest disparity as Cleveland travels to St. Louis immediately following a 13-1 Sunday Night Baseball blowout loss in Atlanta. With high-leverage relievers Hunter Gaddis and Andrew Walters still sidelined on the injured list, the Guardians' bullpen is critically thin and ill-equipped to handle a St. Louis lineup that enjoyed a standard afternoon home finish while Cleveland was in the air.
OUTCOME
St. Louis Cardinals 3 - Cleveland Guardians 9
