Arrieta has looked hittable this season and in his lone start vs. Dodgers, Cubs lost 5-0. Rich Hill has been dominant at home surrendering just 1 run in 3 starts at Dodger Stadium. Dodgers are looking more and more like the team of destiny.

Dodgers +115 7u

GL! As a Cubs fan, I'm not feeling comfortable about this game. Arrieta has been solid and out dueled Bumgarner in the NLDS, he's just not sub-human like he was in 2015 and April. Cubs bats are the worry. Top two team against lefties in the regular season, so they are capable. They have had timely hitting just not consistent hitting. Can they break out tonight...we shall see.

Laying off (because im not betting against the Cubs), but I would call this a coinflip game, so the +money makes sense.

I agree, definitely a coinflip type of game......and that's why the line is basically even. Vegas knows what they're doing.

Dodgers favored at most books now. Is it because entire world is fading Lang?

Cubs lost 5-0 the game arrieta pitched but I believe he pitched 7 shutout innings.

you realize that "sub-human" would mean he was less than human, right?

Lol...yes, now that I reread and process. Was just typing with the flow! You know what I meant from the context.

Maddon shaking up the lineup and benching Heyward. We'll see if it works. Arrieta facing barrage of lefties.

Are the Cubs even trying?

Like I said, Rich Hill is Koufax like at home, 0 runs in 3 of 4 starts.

Team of Destiny.... I believe!

Nice hit Mango! It's not a coinflip if one team refuses to hit. This isn't the first time a team has lost their bats in the playoffs, and it can come back quick...but obviously, if they don't find it tonight against Urias, it's over. Cubs only -111 right now. I figured it would be -160. Vegas not confident they turn it around.

Yeah must win for sure. Can't see them beating both Kershaw and Hill.

Here in Vegas Lackey opened at -115 and already a dog at -103. Urias may be the youngest to ever start in the playoffs but kid's got serious poise and maturity. Nothing seems to bother him. Also helps that he beat the Cubs at Dodger Stadium allowing just a run.

But hard to see the Cubs getting blanked 3 games in a row so still on the fence. Maybe wait til Lang releases his play then hammer the opposite side.
