The Cubs come into this game with a 34-52 record overall and they were swept in the last series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Outside of the last game the pitching actually wasn’t horrible, but the offense struggled in the first three games.

On the mound for the Orioles is Jordan Lyles who sits with a 5-7 record and an ERA of 4.50. In his last start against the Los Angeles Angels, Lyles went six innings giving up five hits and one run.

On the mound for the Cubs will be Adrian Sampson and he sits with a 0-0 record and an ERA of 2.91. In his last start against the Milwaukee Brewers, he went 5.2 innings giving up four hits and one run.

The Orioles are 8-0 in their last eight games overall. The Cubs are 0-7 in their last seven interleague games against a team with a losing record. The under is 4-0 in Lyles last four road games. The under is 7-1 in the Orioles last eight after scoring five or more runs in their previous games.

Lyles is coming off a strong start, and as shocking as it might be, this is a Baltimore team I think we can trust right now. Lyles is going to lock down a Cubs offense that has been inconsistent at best, and that is going to be the difference as the Orioles get the job done. Back the Orioles on the money line.
