Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pirates efforts should be applauded as they made some moves to go for it but in the end they just couldn’t sustain their winning. They are below .500 and with too many teams it chase in the NL Central. Still they can be a spoiler to St. Louis even if they are not in great form right now.

Ivan Nova is having a reasonably effective season for Pittsburgh overall but he has been a disaster on the road this year – ERA over 5. With the team fading and those kind of splits it is difficult to make.
St. Louis Cardinals
Matt Carpenter is killing it and Yadiel Molina is still a thing but the Cardinals are staying in the race due to contributions from a broad cast of unheralded characters. For all of his league leading extra base hits Carpenter does not even lead the team in RBIs, Jose Martinez does. .

Jack Flaherty falls nicely into that group. He is having a great rookie season and is showing now signs of letting up having allowed only three runs over four August starts. That includes a road win at Pittsburgh where he shut out the Bucs for 6 innings. No team has seen as much of him as Pittsburgh has.

Free Pittsburgh Pirates vs. St. Louis Cardinals MLB Prediction:
The Cards are the sensible choice in this one but I do not like the moneyline numbers.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Over 8
A little regression from Flaherty and a normal performance from Nova pushes this one over.
