Game Analysis
10* FREE MLB PICK (Cubs -106)
I'll gladly back the Cubs at a pick'em in Game 5. Chicago will send out their best starter going right now in Kyle Hendricks, who was sensational in Game 1, allowing just 2 hits over 7 innings of the Cubs 3-0 win. With Strasburg moving up to take the ball in Game 4, the Nationals are turning to Gio Gonzalez, who wasn't great in his start in Game 3, giving up 3 runs in 5 innings and was lucky it wasn't worse, as he gave up 2 home runs. That poor showing coincided with his poor finish to the season and I just think this will be the game the Cubs offense comes to life. This team is not afraid of the moment and will go into it with all the confidence in the world. I expect them to deliver and move on the NLCS. Give me Chicago -106!
