STILL A PLAY AS SAME STARTERS ARE GOING AT 2:20 PM ET FRIDAY

FIRST FIVE 4% Cubs w/ Taillon -150 Miami w/ Puk

I make this line -200.

The Cubs are returning home from a road trip at SD, SEA and ARZ and they won 4 of the L5 games in that trip. At home they are 5-1 with the loss was as a dog vs the Dodgers and in fact they are 5-0 as a favorite with an avg score of 7.6 to 2.4. Taillon is making his season debut as he started the season on IL.

I cursed the Marlins by going to their season opener and they ended up losing the first 9 games of the season. Miami is batting .212 on the road and have and have topped 9 this once in their L8 games. Puk was scheduled to start Monday but was pushed back with an illness. He is a reliever that has gotten into the 4th inning his L2 starts but he has a 5.90 ERA and 2.437 WHIP.

Using F5 as the Cubs bullpen has needed to use several AAA players of late.
