The Cardinals sit at 54-52 while the Rangers are at 52-55. With both teams not currently contending for a playoff spot, this interleague matchup offers a chance for either side to gain some momentum.<\/p>\n<p>In yesterday&#8217;s series opener, the Cardinals managed to secure a win, giving them a slight edge heading into today&#8217;s game. The Cardinals will look to Lance Lynn, a right-handed pitcher who has started 20 games this season and holds a 5-4 record with a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">4.17<\/a> ERA. However, his 4.91 xERA suggests that he has been somewhat fortunate and might face challenges ahead. Lynn is projected to pitch 5.4 innings, allowing 2.7 earned runs, with a below-average strikeout projection of 4.9 batters. <\/p>\n<p>On the other side, the Rangers will counter with Max Scherzer, also a right-handed pitcher, who has started 7 games this season. Scherzer holds a 2-3 record with a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">3.57<\/a> ERA, indicating a solid performance thus far. His projections mirror Lynn\u2019s in innings pitched at 5.4 but are slightly better in terms of earned runs allowed (2.5) and strikeouts (5.3).<\/p>\n<p>Offensively, the Cardinals rank as the 18th best in MLB, while the Rangers are 21st. Despite this, St. Louis has shown more power and efficiency, ranking 14th in team batting average compared to Texas&#8217; 18th. Over the last week, Paul Goldschmidt has been the standout for the Cardinals, hitting .304 with a .957 OPS, including two home runs. Nate Lowe has been the Rangers&#8217; best hitter, boasting a .348 average and a 1.152 OPS with two home runs and seven RBIs over the same period.<\/p>\n<p>The Cardinals&#8217; bullpen, ranked 7th by advanced-stat Power Rankings, could be a deciding factor against the Rangers&#8217; 20th-ranked bullpen. Betting markets have the Rangers as slight favorites with a moneyline of -120, implying a 52% win probability. However, with the Cardinals at +100 and an implied win probability of 48%, this game is expected to be closely contested, and the Cardinals&#8217; recent win could provide the boost they need to take this matchup.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Texas Rangers Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Texas Rangers &#8211;  1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (-145)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Max Scherzer is an extreme flyball pitcher (42.3% FB% according to the leading projection system, THE BAT) and should be helped pitching in the #27 HR venue in MLB in this matchup.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> This pitcher&#8217;s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he&#8217;s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Wyatt Langford &#8211; Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115\/-150)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Based on Statcast data, the leading projection system (THE BAT X)&#8217;s version of Expected HR per 600 plate appearances (19.6) suggests that Wyatt Langford has suffered from bad luck this year with his 8.7 actual HR\/600.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> xHR uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player&#8217;s home run ability more accurately than actual home runs can.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong><\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">The Texas Rangers have been the 6th-unluckiest offense in the game this year, according to the leading projection system (THE BAT X), and are likely to positively regress going forward<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> When teams underperform their projected talent level, markets may undervalue them even while they are likely to perform better in the near future.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">St. Louis Cardinals Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Lance Lynn &#8211; Over\/Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+105\/-135)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Despite conventional wisdom, fastballs are generally a pitcher&#8217;s least effective pitch.
