Expect a tight contest, but Houston’s deeper staff and late-inning offense should carry the day. Cristian Javier is projected to start for the Astros and comes in fresh after a strong spring tune-up (10 K, 1 BB in his last two outings). His high-spin fastball historically neutralizes the Cardinals’ top right-handed bats, especially Gorman and Walker, who both slug nearly 150 points lower against pitches at the top of the zone.
St. Louis counters with veteran Miles Mikolas. While dependable with his command, Mikolas struggled versus Houston last year (6.75 ERA, .328 BAA) and faces a lineup that now features left-handed on-base machines Alex Bregman 2.0 and Yordan Álvarez fully healthy. The Astros’ projected 2-4 hitters (Altuve, Álvarez, Tucker) all posted OPS figures above .900 against sinker/slider mixes like Mikolas’s in 2025-25.
Key matchup: Cardinals’ revamped bullpen—now relying on rookie fireballer Jorge Cuevas in high-leverage spots—against Houston’s experience-laden late trio of Abreu, Pressly, and Hader. Houston’s pen owns a collective 2.31 ERA this spring; St. Louis sits at 5.02 and has coughed up three ninth-inning leads in its last five games.
The Cards should scratch early—Goldschmidt historically handles Javier’s first-pitch heaters—but Houston’s mid-game rally against Mikolas’s third-time-through numbers (opponents hit .301) swings momentum. Insurance comes in the eighth when Kyle Tucker turns on a Cuevas 98-mph fastball for a two-run double.
Final outlook: Astros 6-4. Houston consolidates its second-place standing, while St. Louis’s defensive lapses (team-leading 15 spring errors) continue to offset its sporadic power.
