Result: Win
This is a 6* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Chicago Cubs.
For the most part MLB handicapping comes down to the starting pitching and in this case, we feel that the home side has a major advantage, one so big that we have no issues whatsoever in laying this larger price.
Tommy Milone: He's 1-0 with a 7.36 ERA. So far he's been wildly inconsistent this year. But that's not surprising as he was just 3-4 with a 5.46 ERA last season, including only 2-4 with a 5.75 ERA on the road and a horrible 1-1 with a 7.16 ERA in all "day" games.
Kyle Hendricks: He's 1-1 with a 5.73 ERA. He's coming off a career year in which he went 16-8 with a 2.15 ERA, so he's also looked pretty shaky to open the 2017 campaign. That said, he wasn't horrible in his last outing, giving up three runs off six hits and two walks across five frames in Friday's 4-2 setback to Pittsburgh, while also striking out three.
The bottom line: Hendricks was dominant in this spot last year, going 9-3 with a 2.42 ERA in all "day" games and 9-2 with a 1.32 ERA at home. We look for the defending champs to build off yesterday's come from behind 9-7 victory and to take advantage of this favorable matchup. Lay the price with confidence, play on the CUBS.
