St Louis Cardinals at New York Yankees Preview & Picks

St Louis are tipped to win as an underdog in this series.

Starter Erick Fedde enters in good form and his underwhelming record this season is largely down to his time with a bad Chicago White Sox team.

  • St Louis pitcher Erick Fedde gave up 1 just 1 earned last time out
  • Erick Fedde has 32 more strikeouts than New York pitcher Marcus Strowman
  • The Under has cashed in 7 of St Louis' last 10 games
  • The Under has hit in 5 of New York's previous 7 games

Head To Head

  • This is the first meeting between the two teams this season

St Louis Cardinals Form

St Louis come into this series looking to build on back-to-back victories in their last series against San Diego.

The Cardinals lost five straight in mid-August and then failed to build on a 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers as they lost their next two games.

They did avoid a third straight loss though, beating Milwaukee 10-6, and that proved to be the start of a three-game winning run that saw them beat the Brewers 3-0 and win 6-1 in Minnesota.

St Louis’ run was ended by a 6-0 defeat to the Twins, but they did rebound to win the series finale, 3-2.

The Cardinals then returned home to face San Diego in a four-game series, and bounced back from 7-4 and 7-5 defeats with 4-3 and 4-1 victories.

New York Yankees Form

New York enter this series looking to rebound from a couple of defeats in Washington earlier this week.

The Yankees began the second half of August with a 3-0 win in Detroit, only to then lose their next two meetings with the Tigers, 4-0 and 3-2.

Their losing skid reached three games with a 9-5 home defeat to Cleveland, but they did stop the rot against the Guardians, reeling off 8-1 and 6-0 wins.

New York then played host to Colorado and sandwiched a 9-2 defeat to the Rockies with 3-0 and 10-3 victories.

The Yankees went back out on the road after that series, and failed to build on a 5-2 win over Washington as they lost the final two games in the series, 4-2 and 5-2.

Verdict

St Louis have been in better form this week and pitcher Erick Fedde has a solid ERA despite spending a chunk of time with the White Sox earlier this season.
