Cardinals left-hander Jordan Montgomery is slated to take the mound and he should be a good candidate to fade. Through 16 starts this season, Montgomery is 5-7 with a 3.52 ERA and 1.27 WHIP.
His underlying metrics suggest that positive regression is unlikely, as he ranks in the 51st percentile or lower in xERA/xwOBA, xBA, xSLG, and Barrel%. Specifically, we are going to fade Montgomery in the strikeout department.
Entering Sunday, he ranks in the 40th percentile or lower in both K% and Whiff%. Currently, you can find his strikeout prop as high as 4.5 at FanDuel.
While the Yankees have generally struggled at the plate this year, they are good at one thing: limiting strikeouts. New York specifically makes consistent contact against southpaws, ranking in the top half of the league in K% vs. lefty hurlers. 
Looking at Sunday’s projected starting lineup, five of the nine hitters possess a K% south of 22% this year. This avoidance of the strikeout is likely to continue against old friend Montgomery.  My best bet: Jordan Montgomery Under 4.5 strikeouts (-104 at FanDuel) Yankees vs Cardinals same-game parlay Jordan Montgomery Under 4.5 strikeouts (-115) Under 8.5 runs (-155) Yankees moneyline (-115) We already covered the first leg in the best bet section above, but let us look at the other two.
On the other side, right-hander Gerrit Cole takes the mound for New York. One of the front-runners for the AL Cy Young award, Cole is 8-1 with a 2.78 ERA and 1.13 WHIP.
We should expect the same-old stuff from Cole and see the Cardinals’ bats limited, but what about New York’s? While we are fading Montgomery in the strikeout department, I once again point you to the best bet section where I alluded to the Yankees’ struggle at the dish this season.
Currently, New York ranks in the Bottom 8 of the league in hits per game, batting average, and OPS. With the significant pitching advantage, I see the Yankees winning in a low-scoring affair.

Yankees vs Cardinals moneyline and Over/Under analysis
This game opened to a pick ‘em before some steam brought up New York to the –120 range. That movement makes sense, given that Cole is a much stronger pitcher than Montgomery.
That brings us to the total, which opened at 8 and has since been bumped up to 8.5. The tick-up is not surprising with the Cardinals’ strong lineup even against an ace like Cole. And despite the Yankees’ below-average performance at the plate this year, they should not be overlooked either thanks to a long list of hitters who have historically shown an ability to do damage.
However, in a game with Cole on the mound and Montgomery...
