Today’s matchup is between the Cincinnati Reds (19-24) and the St. Louis Cardinals (19-18). The Reds have won 2 of their last 5 games and the Cardinals have won 3 of their last 5 games.
The Reds are starting Luis Castillo (RHP), on the mound who is 1-5 in 8 starts on the season pitching a 3.95 ERA, 2.85 FIP, .322 wOBA, K% of 31.1%, BB% of 8.8%, 85.8 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.48 WHIP in 43.1 innings pitched.
The Cardinals are starting Adam Wainwright (RHP), who is 4-0 in 6 starts with a 2.68 ERA, 4.07 FIP, .247 wOBA, K% of 19.6%, BB% of 5.7%, 87.8 MPH average exit velocity, and a 0.92 WHIP in 40.1 innings pitched.
The Reds are the 18th best in the Majors in Relieving Pitching while the Cardinals are 22nd.
On the hitting side, the Reds have a .310 wOBA and a .310 OBP. The Cardinals have a .318 wOBA and a .337 OBP. The Reds have 65 HRs this season while the Cardinals have 31 HRs.
I'm liking Adam Wainwright coming into this one as he's sporting a nice whip of 0.92 and he just doesn't walk batters with his 5.7 BB%. While Adam Wainwright might not be as good as his ERA suggest, the Reds are going to struggle with their .209 batting avg since their not going to get any easy walks and so I don't see many RBIs for the Reds.
