Pittsburgh at St. Louis

Pittsburgh has scored just two runs in each of its first two games on this road trip. The offense is 22nd in runs scored, 26th in on-base percentage, 19th in steals, and 26th in slugging. At least they have Mitch Keller (3.16 ERA) on the mound, allowing two runs or less in six consecutive starts. He faces a St. Louis offense that is 27th in runs scored, 20th in on-base percentage, and 23rd in slugging, with no way to manufacture runs (26th in steals). Lance Lynn (3.58 ERA) takes the hill and his teams are 83-57 UNDER the total when he starts with five or six days of rest. With the Cardinals 114-82 UNDER versus NL teams with a batting average of .250 or less, expect a defensive duel. Take Pittsburgh/St. Louis UNDER the total.
