Cardinals vs. Brewers Free Pick May 9

The G911 Sports Hub has four of the top handicappers backing the St. Louis Cardinals in their game against the Milwaukee Brewers.  Let's see if we're feeling this play.  If you like consensus plays from the top cappers, the St. Louis Cardinals is your pick tonight.

The line on this game was coming in at EVEN early on but has since moved to -139 Cardinals with better than 80% of those betting the sides backing St. Louis and the books having a knee jerk reaction.

Milwaukee has won eight of the last nine in this series, so there is a bit of a risk factor here.

But it is Sonny Grey starting for the 15-21 Cards.  He's 4-1 with a sick 0.89 ERA. 

Gray didn’t allow a run over seven innings with six strikeouts to help the Cardinals to a 3-0 victory over the White Sox on Saturday.

Prior to that he allowed four runs -- one earned -- with nine strikeouts over six innings in a win over the Mets.

The Brewers have 16 hits against Gray in 60 at bats including 10 RBIs (.267).   

Milwaukee will be starting Tobias Myers, who is 0-2 with a 6.23 ERA.

Myers allowed four runs across three innings in a loss to the Cubs on Saturday. Making his second big-league start, Myers gave up four runs in five innings against the Yankees before that.

Gray is really good, and maybe too good going up against Myers.  But we are pretty confident that Myers will have a good outing here.

The total has dropped from 8.5 to 7.5.  Six of the last seven in this series have stayed Under that total.  The Cardinals have not scored more than three runs in six of their last ten, though they've permitted four or more runs in eight of their last ten.  And the Brewers have scored 4 or more runs in six of their last ten.
