How to Bet Cardinals-Pirates

In addition to traditional bets like the moneyline, run line, and game total, several more bets are offered at FanDuel Sportsbook.

Will the Infusion of Young Talent Spark Cardinals?

Before the weekend series with the Pittsburgh Pirates, the St Louis Cardinals announced that top-prospects Nolan Gorman and Matthew Liberatore were called up from the minors. Brendan Donovan and Juan Yepez have already infiltrated the Cardinals’ lineup and provided a spark, but will Gorman playing every day at the major league level help get this offense going for more than a handful of games?

Cardinals Projected Lineup:

SS Tommy Edman

2B Nolan Gorman

1B Paul Goldschmidt

3B Nolan Arenado

DH Juan Yepez

RF Dylan Carlson

LF Corey Dickerson

CF Harrison Bader

C Yadier Molina

Starting Pitcher: Miles Mikolas

Can the Pirates Find Success Against Slumping Cardinals?

The Cardinals enter this series having lost three of four games vs. the New York Mets, and you can bet that Pittsburgh will want St. Louis to continue struggling. The Pirates lost two of three games against the Cardinals to begin their season, and they’ll be looking for payback this weekend at home.

Pirates Projected Lineup:

3B Ke’Bryan Hayes

CF Bryan Reynolds

2B Michael Chavis

DH Daniel Vogelbach

SS Rodolfo Castro

RF Diego Castillo

1B Yoshitomo Tsutsugo

C Tyler Heineman

LF Jack Suwinski

Starting Pitcher: Bryse Wilson
