Back to EpisodesCardinals vs Tigers: Platoon Showdown
Description
Join us for a thrilling Sunday Night Baseball matchup as the St. Louis Cardinals face off against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. Kyle Leahy, the Cardinals starter, aims to bounce back from a rough debut, while the Tigers rely on Keider Montero to fill in for the injured Justin Verlander.
Leahys struggles against lefties present an opportunity for Tigers rookie Kevin McGonigle, whos been tearing up the league with a three thirty-three batting average and power. Expect him to rack up hits, runs, or RBIs over one point five.
On the Cardinals side, Alec Burleson is poised to shine against Montero, who also fades against left-handed batters. Burlesons been crushing righties this year, and hes owned Montero before. With winds blowing out to left, he could surpass one point five total bases.
Kerry Carpenter, another Cardinals player, excels against right-handers, boasting a one thirty-five weighted runs created plus over a thousand at-bats. Despite a slow start, Leahys weak fastball could play right into Carpenters hands for more than one point five total bases.
Tune in to Peacock for this platoon-heavy showdown – it could be fireworks if these hot hands connect as the numbers suggest.
