St. Louis Cardinals @ Atlanta Braves Preview

The St. Louis Cardinals and Atlanta Braves face off in the second game of their series after the Cardinals dominated the Braves 10-4 in the opener. The Braves, who have been strong contenders this season, will look to bounce back and even the series. The Cardinals, on the other hand, will aim to carry their offensive momentum into this matchup. Both teams have playoff aspirations, making this an intriguing early-season clash.

Historic Head-to-Head Stats and Analysis

In their last matchup on April 22, 2025, the Cardinals defeated the Braves 10-4, showcasing a strong offensive performance. Historically, these two teams have been competitive, with the Braves holding a slight edge in recent seasons. However, the Cardinals' ability to score in bunches, as seen in the previous game, makes them a dangerous opponent for Atlanta.

Pick: Total Over 8.5 (-122)

The Cardinals' offense exploded for 10 runs in the series opener, and the Braves have consistently been one of the league's top-scoring teams. With both lineups capable of putting up big numbers, the over 8.5 runs is an appealing play. Additionally, the Cardinals' home field has been conducive to higher-scoring games, further supporting this pick.

Top Player Prop Picks

1. Paul Goldschmidt Over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)

Goldschmidt has been a consistent force in the Cardinals' lineup and is coming off a strong performance in the series opener. His ability to hit for both power and average makes this a solid play, especially against a Braves pitching staff that struggled in Game 1.

2. Ronald Acuña Jr. Over 0.5 Home Runs (+300)

Acuña Jr. is one of the most dynamic players in baseball and always a threat to go deep. With the Braves looking to bounce back, expect Acuña to be aggressive at the plate, making this a high-upside prop bet.

3. Nolan Arenado Over 0.5 RBIs (+125)

Arenado is a clutch hitter and a key part of the Cardinals' offense. With runners likely to be on base given the team's recent offensive surge, Arenado has a great chance to drive in at least one run in this game.
