Had time to clear my mind the past couple days after a disheartening cold streak. Time to right the ship today...
YTD: 1-6
CHICAGO CUBS -1.5 (-125)
Both teams have been cold, but the Cubs have more to play for right now. They've lost 5 in a row, and have fallen 4.5 games behind the Cards. They know that if they even wanna think about the playoffs, they have to beat up on teams like Pittsburgh. Buckos are essentially throwing a Triple-A team out there after their mid-season firesale, which has undoubtedly killed many of their players' morale. Randy Wells has been an impressive pitcher for the Cubs this year, and if he had any kind of run support, his record could be a lot better than 8-5. I think he gets that run support today with Aramis probable for the game. Cubs roll. Good luck everyone! Should have some more coming later.
