5 minSt. Louis Cardinals vs. Chicago Cubs Prediction: Do Miles Mikolas, Cardinals Have Edge Over Cubs?
Well, we have a small board here tonight, but there is still money to be made, and I am looking to ride some momentum from those late-night wins we had in Texas last night right into the opening game of this rivalry series tonight. The Chicago Cubs are in St. Louis, taking on the Cardinals for their second four-game series in two weeks, and I am excited for this edition of one of baseball's greatest rivalries.

St. Louis Cardinals vs. Chicago Cubs Prediction
St. Louis went into their series with Chicago last week with some genuine momentum, having won eight of their last ten games and gaining ground on Chicago in the division and were able to take the first game of that series; they then were swept by Chicago over the weekend and lost that momentum. The birds did not let that phase them, however, as they then went to Arizona to close out the road trip and were able to take two of three from the Diamondbacks and probably should have swept them.
The Cardinals are back at Busch tonight, and the pitching matchup is familiar for both sides. Miles Mikolas has not been as spectacular this season as he was last year and was knocked around a bit by Chicago last time, but I like this bounce-back spot at home with some momentum.
Justin Steele has been strong against St. Louis this year, but it is troublesome for a hot, talented bunch of hitters to see a pitcher over and over again. I love this spot for the birds to get one back from the Cubs for last week and keep the bats rolling.
