Cardinals play three games at a bandbox against the Reds for a short road trip

The Cincinnati Reds have a new team with 11 players acquired in 2022. Just four players are 25 or younger on the active roster. They have 18 players on injured list. Austin Romine and Chuckie Robinson are the team's only productive players. They play three games at a bandbox against the Cardinals. The team is going on a short road trip. It's possible that they will lose the series. Their bullpen is not very good. Alexis Diaz is their best reliever. He's the only shutdown guy. There is no named closer. In the outfield, Jake Fraley is platooned with Stuart Fairchild. Nick Senzel has been injured recently.

Miles Mikolas and Chase Anderson are going to play a game tomorrow. The Reds are looking for pitching. Mikola has had some bad starts against the Reds this year. Cardinals play three games at a bandbox against Reds for a short road trip. They play at Great American Ballpark tomorrow as well.

Dakota Hudson and Justin Dunn are going to play against each other. The Reds are in need of starting pitchers. They have the 25th lowest walk rate in baseball this year. Hudson has pitched a bad game against the Reds at Busch and a good one at GABP.

Cardinals play three games at a bandbox against the Reds. Wednesday's game starts at 5:40 PM.

Jose Quintana and Mike Minor are going to play each other in Cincinnati. Albert Pujols is guaranteed a start. Minor has been a starter for nearly his entire career and he should try to change his career to being a reliever. Quintanana is coming off two rough starts.

The Cardinals play three games at a bandbox against the Reds for a short road trip. My pick is Cards. I'm terrible at predicting series but I do well on individual games. For the second week in a row, I ignored my gut instinct and I would be 8-10 in series.
