(979) Houston Astros at (980) Chicago Cubs
#980 5% Cubs w/ Taillon -109 Houston w/ Arrighetti
I make the Cubs -185
We were on Taillon in his first start of the season and used F5 as we were at a bullpen disadvantage but in this game, we will go full game as the Astros bullpen has been a train wreck. Taillon went 5 innings on a pitch count, so we expect an even longer appearance. Arrighetti is making his third start with an 11.57 ERA and 2.29 WHIP. Houston is 1-7 their L8 and when you break down the season they are 4-5 as a Fav of -129+ but as s small Fav/Dog they are 3-12. Astros with only 10 hits the L2 games and they have topped 9 hits only once in their last 7 games. Cubs are 8-3 at home this season and 8-2 as a favorite (6-6 as dog).
