Top Cardinals vs. Tigers predictions\u00a0<\/p>\n

After 10,000 simulations of Tigers vs. Cardinals, the model is going Over 8 total runs.\u00a0Over the last 11 games between these two, the total has been eclipsed seven times, including in Saturday’s meeting which saw 17 combined runs. St. Louis’ probable starter, Leahy, struggled in his season debut, allowing 10 baserunners over 5 IP and giving up 4 ER.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Montero was just called up from the minors this weekend with Justin Verlander<\/a> (hip) going on the IL. He had an ERA of 9.00 during Spring Training and an ERA of 4.15 for Team Venezuela during the World Baseball Classic. He also faced the Cardinals during the 2025 MLB season and had arguably his worst start of the year. Montero allowed a season-high-tying of 5 ER to go along with 8 hits, which was his second-most given up. Given the starters’ recent struggles, the model is calling for 9.0 combined runs being scored.\u00a0Get the Cardinals vs. Tigers money-line pick at SportsLine<\/a>.<\/p>\n
