Rating: 8*
This looks almost too easy, but I think it's worth putting some units at work at the Chicago Cubs and the over as they take on the Los Angeles Dodgers in the finale of a three-game series on Sunday.
Brock Stewart (0-2, 11.25) will take the ball for the Dodgers as he's set to make his third career major league start (fourth appearance). The 24 year old rookie has been tagged with 14 runs and five homers in previous starts, and here he'll come up against the best team in baseball looking to revenge a 3-2 defeat on Saturday.
The Cubs turn to reliable left-hander Jon Lester (14-4, 2.81 ERA). He's 5-0 with a 2.28 ERA in his last seven starts (all Cubs wins). Cubs are 4-0 in Lester's last four starts during Game 3 of a series.
I also like the umpire situation with David Rackley calling the shots today. Cubs are 8-1 in their last nine games with Rackley behind home plate and the road team is 6-2 in Rackley's last eight Sunday games.
I'm also recommending a play on the over in this contest as both bullpens have been called into action a lot lately, so don't be surprised to see plenty of runs scored late in the game. We have some trends supporting the over as well with the over 9-2 in Cubs last 11 Sunday games and 5-1 in Dodgers last six Sunday games just to mention a few.
