Cardinals vs. Rockies Prediction: Leahy Gives St. Louis the Pitching Edge
Analysis updated September 6, 2026 at 5:12 AM CDT
St. Louis is the winner pick behind probable starter Kyle Leahy. The moneyline wager is a pass.
Pitching matchup favors the Cardinals
Kyle Leahy's 3.13 ERA against Tanner Gordon's 5.18 gives St. Louis its clearest advantage as SPF's -135 favorite at Colorado. FOX Sports / Associated Press lists both right-handers as probable starters, so the matchup isn't confirmed. Leahy also has the lower WHIP, 1.31 to 1.40.
Recent team pitching points the other way. The same report puts the Cardinals' ERA at 5.45 over their last 10 games, compared with Colorado's 3.94. Those figures cover more than the probable starters and don't isolate bullpen performance, but they temper expectations that St. Louis will prevent runs better throughout this game.
Betting view
The Cardinals are the likelier winner, but the pitching comparison alone doesn't establish that their chances exceed the roughly 57.4% needed to break even at -135. Colorado's +112 price doesn't make it a worthwhile alternative. Pass on the moneyline.
SPF lists the total at 11, with over -115 and under -105. Without confirmed lineups, bullpen availability or weather information, neither side has a clear case. Pass on the total; the run-line price is unavailable.
