Under 9.5 +106

Why is this total so high? You have Willis going against the Cubs offense. And the Floridia offense has not done anything in weeks. What am I missing? Pinnacle is begging people to take the under.

You have Koronka, a stiff, going for the Cubs. Meanwhile, I believe the Cubs have done fairly well against Willis in his career, and it doesn't look like the wind will be blowing in tonight. Even so, that does seem a little high. I would say it's mainly due to Koronka and the thinking that the Cubs will have to go to their pen early, and that the Cubs will at least push a few runs across. Florida's pen isn't setting the world on fire either.

The wind is blowing from right to left tonight. It usally takes 2 teams for an over. I think it stays under tonight.

cubs bats

Cubs bats have come to life since the start of June, ave 5.5 runs per game.

I have no opinion on the total but at Wrigley with the wind blowing you never know.

GL man, I'm not playing it, but if I had to pick this would be the choice. Night games at Wrigley seem to be lower scoring in general.

I don't know how valid this is, but one other nugget that could be factoring into both the game line (Florida not favored by as much as one would think) and the total, from Statfox:

MLB | FLORIDA at CHICAGO CUBS
D WILLIS is 0-8 (-10.4 Units) against the money line when playing against a good team (Win Pct. 54% to 62%) over the last 2 seasons.
The average score was: D WILLIS (3.5) , OPPONENT (7.4)

no opinion on this one really. Just wanted to let you know why it was kind of high. Weird thing is the public is on the under and the total has moved up. This is usually a bad sign for the under.


good luck, whatever you decide

Wind is out to center at about 14... tread carefully, if you have ever seen a game at wrigley. However the wind tends to die as the sun goes down. GL

It does not matter. There is plenty of slack in the line to compensate for that.

Just got back from Vegas. Didnt get a chance to see this line, but I agree. With D-Train on the mound, Marlins and Cubs offense's, 9.5 is a gift. I really dont care if it goes over, it's not a lock or anything, but at 9.5 I'll take my chances on that everyday and twice on Sunday. Nice line for you Chop regardless of outcome.

I can't believe Baker is playing Burnitz and Patterson against Willis!
