The play of the day, despite being such a high number, is Carlos Zambrano and the Cubs at -170.
The Cubs are a bad team this year but despite Zambrano' struggles on Opening day, something we've become far too familiar with (stop starting him on the Opening day), and the teams struggles on the road, they're an excellent home team.
Their offense caters to Wrigley Field and today's match-up plays right into the Cubs hands, IMO.
Jeff Suppan is only pitching in this game because he's making more money than the other options. That is it. I'm not saying he's completely done and that he won't be an effective fifth starter for this team in time, but he's coming off an injury that has shelved him for long and a season that was the worst of his career.
The Cubs win this game handedly as Zambrano pitches well.
3 units wins 1.77
