St. Louis Cardinals vs Chicago Cubs Prediction & Same Game Parlay picks Top SGP: Smart Baseball Betting Angles

The bet on 'Chicago Cubs Over 1.5' in the Team Total Runs market seems promising due to the Cubs' recent offensive performance. In their last five games, the Cubs have averaged 6.8 runs overall and 5.6 runs in away games, significantly higher than the line of 1.5. Their batting average of 10.6 hits overall and 10.2 hits in away games further supports their offensive prowess. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have struggled defensively, allowing an average of 4.4 runs in their last five games. Although their home runs allowed average is lower at 1.4, it still indicates potential for the Cubs to score over 1.5 runs. Moreover, the Cardinals have a poor record against the Cubs, having lost four out of their last five matchups. These statistics collectively suggest a strong likelihood of the Cubs scoring over 1.5 runs.

Pete Crow-Armstrong (CHC) Under 0.5 Stolen Bases (-667)

The bet on Pete Crow-Armstrong for Under 0.5 in the Batter Stolen Bases market is a good choice based on his recent performance data. Over his last five games, Crow-Armstrong has an average of only 0.2 stolen bases overall, 0.2 when playing away, and 0.4 against the Cardinals. These numbers suggest that he rarely steals bases, even when playing on the road or against this specific opponent. Additionally, his current hit streak is relatively low, with only one hit overall and two hits when playing away. This means he has fewer opportunities to steal bases because he is not reaching base as frequently. Finally, the average number of times he's been caught stealing in the last five games is low, further indicating that he does not attempt to steal bases often. Therefore, betting the under on Crow-Armstrong's stolen bases is statistically justified.
