Seven of the last ten meetings have gone UNDER.
PITCHING MATCHUP: Cubs RH Yu Darvish (2-4, 4.98 ERA) vs. Pirates RH Chris Archer (3-6, 5.50)
Darvish's pronounced string of 10 straight no-decisions came to a halt last Wednesday after he allowed five runs on as many hits in five innings of a 5-3 setback against Atlanta. The 32-year-old Japanese star surrendered two homers for the third time in four outings after keeping the ball in the park in five of his previous six. Darvish fell to 1-2 in three career starts versus Pittsburgh after yielding five runs on five hits -- including two homers -- in 5 1/3 innings of a 5-2 loss on April 10.
Archer saw his winless stretch extend to four straight outings as he received a no-decision at Milwaukee on Friday after exiting the contest with discomfort in his left hip. The 30-year-old has pitched significantly better in the Steel City, posting a 3-3 mark with a 3.89 ERA as opposed to an 0-3 record with a 7.89 ERA away from home. Javier Baez is 5-for-9 in his career against Archer, who owns a 2-1 mark with a 2.25 ERA in four career starts versus the Cubs.
Pittsburgh has had five explosive games in their last ten, so no way we go with the UNDER. And an OVER goes against the trend.
