Taking the CUBS here. I had been a believer in Milwaukee most of the year. I just can't see them overtaking Chicago now. They had their chance over the first half of the season while the Cubs struggled. They seem to have hit their groove as we play September baseball. I do like Nelson, which is why this line is where it is. Not a big fan of Lackey. But he has reeled off wins in 9 of his last 10 starts. Again, Lackey 4-4 4.02 ERA in 12 home starts. But, 3-0 2.48 ERA his last 5 at home. Again, coupled with the entire team turning things around. Everything comes together. Cubbies 8-3 last 11 overall. 8-1 last 9 at home. 9-1 in Lackey's last 10 starts. Brewers 2-5 last 7 on the road, 1-4 last 5 overall and 2-7 last 9 games with Nelson on the hill facing Chicago. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO CUBS
