Blue Jays vs Cardinals Prediction, Betting Analysis
According to Evan Abrams' "Silent Sharp Unders" system, this total is the play to make for this interleague showdown between the Blue Jays and Cardinals on Wednesday.
This system targets MLB regular-season matchups in which both teams have winning percentages between 46% and 100% on the season. But it also targets when the total has quietly dropped from open to close.
These are games featuring stable weather conditions and closing totals in a common scoring range (7.5-10), as well as the fact that both teams are solid.
The market subtly favors the under despite the winning percentages — likely due to matchup specifics, pitching or pace factors.
By following this soft signal — when the public eye is more focused on win streaks and not totals — this system finds value in betting against inflated scoring expectations.
While this system has the best ROI of the bunch, there's others lighting up for this pick for Wednesday, including Evan Abrams' "Contrarian Unders for Winning Teams, Later in Series" and "Contrarian Unders for Winning Teams" from PRO.
That makes this a solid, reliable play on Wednesday.
