Cubs and Nice Consensus Play Today

(May 5, 2023) The Cubs might be the safer consensus play today with all 15 cappers picking the Marlins-Cubs game on Chicago.  This one was going off at 2:20 pm ET Friday afternoon.

Both the Cubs and Marlins were hovering right around the .500 mark heading into this game.

The Cubs are -175.

Chicago Cubs career statistics vs. Edward Cabrera are just .138 (4 of 29 at bats).  Something to think about here.

Dodgers-Cubs Series

(April 20, 2023) - The Cubs have been playing quite well of late.  They came into this week's series against the Athletics with a 9-6 record and left with a record of 11-6 courtesy of a sweep.  Now they take on the Dodgers, a team that was surprisingly one game under the .500 mark.  The Dodgers were 11-2 in the last 13 meetings.

Cubs will be a +140 home dog in Game 2.

Friday April 21 - Chicago Cubs career statistics vs. Julio Urias - .250 (17 hits in 68 at bats permitted).  Three homers and eight RBIs against Urias. Nico Hoerner (.347) is 3 for 4 against Urias.

Friday April 21 - Los Angeles Dodgers career statistics vs. Drew Smyly - .266 (24 in 94 at bats).  Mookie Bets (.266) has two home runs against Smyly. Freddie Freeman has three doubles against him in ten at bats.
