MLB | Cubs vs Brewers
Play on: Cubs +100 at BMaker
1* Free Pick on Chicago Cubs +100
Milwaukee took the opener 4-3 on Monday, setting up an easy play here on the Cubs, especially at this price. Few Teams have been better at bouncing back from a loss than Chicago. The Cubs are 46-20 in their last 66 following a loss. They really don't like losing close games, as they are 42-19 over the last 2 seasons off a loss by 2 runs or less and 16-2 this season off a loss by exactly 1 run.
Even with yesterday's loss the Chicago is still 10-3 over their last 13, as they have really been playing well since they acquired Murphy in a trade. The Cubs offense will be up against Milwaukee's Wade Miley, who has a strong 2.19 ERA in 11 starts. That's not of any concern here, as Miley owns an ugly 4.47 ERA in 7 career starts against Chicago and the Cubs are 12-2 in their last 14 against a NL starter with an ERA of 2.70 or better. Take Chicago!
