Chicago Clubs: Starting to close in on St. Louis in the NL Central
Count us in the crowd that was somewhat skeptical of the Cubs lofty third overall favorite odds to win the National League Pennant back in March. Playing fairly mediocre, with a 15-15 record back on May 10, Chicago is on a 7-2 recent run and they have moved to within four games of the NL Central leading Cardinals. Chicago is the only team in the Majors with an equal amount of runs for and runs against with 166 of each. We see them adding a bunch to the "runs for" total tonight.
San Diego Padres: SoCal Crew is chasing their first winning season in five years
Following four straight sub .500 seasons (300-348) San Diego (20-21) has been flirting with an even record all season. Getting over and staying over the hump has been easier said than done though as the Padres have posted a 9-9 record during the month of May. That run includes a 3-6 recent record where the low-mark was three game sweep by the Nationals by a combined 24-6 final score. San Diego has been outscored 181-196 during their first 41 contests this season.
Pades vs Cubs MLB Call: Chicago sends RHP Kyle Hendricks (0-1 ERA 5.15) to hill as he squares off against Padres RHP Odrisamer Despaigne (2-2 ERA 6.75). Hendricks has given up nine runs, on 19 hits over 16 innings pitched, during his last three starts. Despaigne has been even worse as he’s allowed 15 runs, on 20 hits over just eight innings, during two starts in May. We like the Cubs and we see the scoreboard operator being busy tonight. Give us Chicago with 500 units on the money line and a 300 unit parlay wager that adds the OVER price posted at the Bet365 online sportsbook.
