Chicago Cubs vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction
The Cubs have gone cold offensively all of a sudden, and Brown hasn’t pitched well. Brown has a 6.04 ERA and 1.44 WHIP on the season, and he’s allowed 12 hits and eight earned runs in his last 13 innings. Brown has allowed 16 earned runs in his last 18 innings. No, thanks. Berrios hasn’t been good lately, but the Blue Jays have won eight of his last nine games. The Blue Jays have just been finding ways to win over the last month or so. Berrios is also an all-star caliber pitcher when he’s right, so I’m not worried about him. Give me the Blue Jays.
