Cardinals vs. Reds odds, line, picks: Proven model reveals MLB picks for July 22, 2022 matchup

An NL Central battle has the St. Louis Cardinals (50-44) traveling to play the Cincinnati Reds (34-57) in the first contest of a three-game series, with the first pitch set for 6:40 p.m. ET. St. Louis is listed as a -145 favorite (risk $145 to win $100) on the money line in the latest Cardinals vs. Reds odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while the over-under for total runs scored is 10 (see up-to-date odds for every game this week on our MLB odds page).

Before making any Cardinals vs. Reds picks, you NEED to check out the MLB predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every MLB game 10,000 times, and it is 280-240 on top-rated MLB money-line picks since the start of the 2021 season, returning over $500 for $100 players. This is the same model that pegged the 2021 Atlanta Braves at 10-1 as one of three best bets to win it all last season. Anybody who has followed it has seen profitable returns.

The model knows St. Louis first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is looking to kick off the second half in style. Goldschmidt is a complete hitter with consistent home run power. The seven-time All-Star rolled into the All-Star break leading the team in batting average (.330), home runs (20), RBI (70), and hits (112). He has the tools to continue his stellar start.

The model also knows Cincinnati third baseman Brandon Drury is a smooth run-producer who owns excellent hands. Drury plays sound defense in the corner with a strong throwing arm. The 29-year-old is leading the squad in batting average (.278), homers (18), and RBI (52). He went into the break with momentum, logging a hit in nine straight games. 

Now, the model has set its sights on Cardinals vs. Reds. We can tell you the model is leaning under the total, and it also says one side of the money line has ALL the value. You ABSOLUTELY need to see it before locking in any MLB picks.
