Sonny Gray is on the mound with an ERA of 2.81. He has been a solid arm for the Cardinals this season and should dominate this game against the Reds. The Cardinals have been strong at home with a 21-17 home record. Spiers has been decent for the Reds but has a losing record against the Cardinals. Spiers is 0-1 when starting against St.Louis with an ERA of 12.00 and a WHIP of 2.667 and this is his third start this season. Gray has managed to shut down batters at home with an ERA of 1.51 and the Cardinals have the edge with the better pitcher and lineup.

Best bet: take the St.Louis Cardinals on the runline (RL).
