Cincinnati Reds vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction

I’ll stay with the Reds. Greene had a few hiccups in his last start (6.0 innings; three earned) but overall he’s doing pretty well lately. Greene is 1-0 with a combined three earned in his last three starts over 19.0 innings. As for Fedde, he’s 1-2 with nine earned over 14.0 innings in his last trio.

On Monday the Reds didn’t have a huge offensive night outside of Spencer Steer and Elly De La Cruz. That duo combined for three homers, six RBI, four hits and three runs. The pitching was great too; only Jakob Junis (2.1 clean frames) came out of the pen. Cincinnati should be strong across the board for Tuesday.
