St. Louis Cardinals DFS Spin
Cardinals first baseman Willson Contreras reached base twice in his team’s 2-0 win over the Rangers on Saturday afternoon. In that game, the former Chicago Cub went 1 for 3 with a double, an RBI, a walk, and a run scored. For the season, Contreras is hitting .241 with 6 homers, 30 RBIs, 2 steals, and an OPS of .702 in 203 at-bats. Willson Contreras is batting .400 in games played on turf this season. That fact makes him worth a look in DFS for Sunday’s game at Globe Life Field, which features an artificial turf playing surface.
Texas Rangers DFS Spin
Rangers designated hitter Corey Seager had 25% of his team’s hits in their 2-0 loss to the Cardinals on Saturday. Hitting out of the #2 spot in the lineup, the Charlotte, NC, native went 1 for 4 with a single. Seager is hitting .286 with 6 homers, 12 RBIs, and an OPS of .810 in 112 at-bats this year. The 31-year-old left-handed hitter is batting .333 with an OPS of .915 over his last 15 games, making him an interesting DFS option on Sunday.

Cardinals vs. Rangers Betting Prediction
I like the Cardinals in this matchup. A slew of numbers will make the case for St. Louis in this contest. The Redbirds are 21-20 straight up when playing on no rest and 31-24 straight up when playing an opponent on equal rest this season. What’s more, St. Louis is 12-11 straight up in interleague games and 25-20 straight up in non-division games this year. And finally, the Cardinals are 22-17 straight up as an underdog in 2025. It won’t be easy going against Rangers ace Jacob deGrom, but I think the Cardinals earn an outright road win in Arlington on Sunday afternoon. The pick is St. Louis +145 on the money line over Texas at Bovada.lv.
