The legs, one at a time

Alec Burleson (STL) Over 0.5 Hits+Runs+RBIs (-278)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Cardinals gear up to face the Phillies, Alec Burleson stands out as a prime candidate to make an impact at the plate. The young outfielder has been on a tear lately, exhibiting an impressive ability to get on base and drive in runs. With the Cardinals’ offense humming and boasting an average of over five runs per game at home, Burleson’s chances to contribute only increase. Facing Phillies’ pitching, which has struggled on the road, particularly against left-handed hitters, Burleson could find himself in a favorable matchup. His plate discipline has improved, and he’s shown a knack for delivering when it matters most. The sweet spot of the lineup, combined with the Cardinals' recent form—winners of their last three at home—suggests Burleson will not only get a hit but could well add to his RBIs. Betting on him to go over 0.5 seems like a smart play in this high-scoring affair.

Kyle Schwarber (PHI) Over 0.5 Hits+Runs+RBIs (-303)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Cardinals host the Phillies, all eyes should be on Kyle Schwarber, who seems poised to make an impact. With his recent form, Schwarber has been a force, consistently finding gaps in opposing defenses. Facing a Cardinals rotation that has struggled lately, particularly against left-handed hitters, the conditions are ripe for him to deliver. The Phillies are riding a wave of offensive momentum, and Schwarber's ability to get on base has been a key factor. The Cardinals' pitching staff has allowed a concerning average of 5.1 runs per game recently, which bodes well for a player of Schwarber's caliber to not only hit but also drive in runs. With a line set at just 0.5, it feels almost like a no-brainer to back him to exceed that mark. Given these trends and his recent performances, expect Schwarber to make his presence felt on the scoreboard tonight.

Luis Arraez (MIN) Under 1.5 Hits (-213)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Cardinals host the Phillies, keep a close eye on Luis Arraez's batting line. While he’s been a bright spot for Miami this season, facing the Cardinals' ace can be a different beast. St. Louis boasts one of the league's more formidable pitching staffs, and their top starter has been especially tough on left-handed hitters like Arraez. Over his last ten games, Arraez has been held under 1.5 hits in several matchups against quality pitching, and the Cardinals’ pitching, with an impressive strikeout rate and limiting hard contact, presents a significant challenge. The matchup leans heavily into the Cardinals' favor, and with Arraez's recent performance against top-tier arms, the under on hits feels like a prudent play here. Expect him to struggle to find gaps against this tough St. Louis rotation, making the under a compelling option.

That is the whole read. Every leg above is our own number against the price on the board at the time we wrote this, and the price can move before you get on. Bet what you can afford to lose. If betting stops being fun, take a break.
