Cardinals starter Michael Wacha has been shaky of late and was dreadful in his last outing, allowing six runs on seven hits while failing to get out of the fourth inning. But he has won seven straight decisions at Great American Ball Park, where the Reds appeared mired in a major slide and enter Thursday on a four-game losing streak. Cincinnati starter Sonny Gray also lost his previous start against the Cardinals this year. Take advantage of the situational value on St. Louis.

Michael Wacha is 6-5 with a 5.54 ERA this season but he has won seven straight appearances at Great American Ballpark. Sonny Gray is 7-6 with a 3.10 ERA this season and 6-2 with a 3.39 ERA at home. The Reds have lost four in a row while the Cards have won five in a row. Take the value in the Cardinals.

The Cardinals' Michael Wacha is 12-1 with a 2.79 ERA in 21 career appearances against the Reds, including 17 starts. In addition, he has won his last six starts at Great American Ball Park. St. Louis has a bit of momentum going, winning five straight, while Cincinnati has lost four in a row. This is a great price on the Cardinals.
