This is a play on the CHICAGO CUBS for our MLB Underdog Dominator. The Cubs have been shut out in the first two games of this series and it has been an up and down stretch after a hot start to the season. They are a game and a half behind the Brewers in the National League Central and are catching a great price based on the opponent. The Braves are doing Braves things again but still trail the Phillies by two games in the National League East. Despite being 13 games over .500, they are only +234 in the money which shows how much the process are inflated in their favor. Javier Assad has been outstanding this season with a 1.70 ERA and 1.06 WHIP through eight starts, allowing two runs or less in all of those outings. He was great after his promotion to the rotation last season and his .276 career ERA shows it is no fluke. Charlie Morton has been great of late after a couple rough outings against the Mets and Marlins and in his seven starts, the Braves are just 4-3 so there is no value with this price, especially going up against a dominant starter on the other side. 10* (909) Chicago Cubs
Matt’s Pick Chicago Cubs: +146
