Atlanta at Chicago

Premium Pick

Chicago actually won a game last night to snap a 10-game slide while Atlanta ended its 14-game winning streak when it couldn't capitalize on a bases-loaded situation in the ninth. Look for things to get back to normal today as Kyle Wright takes the mound for the Braves and he is 7-3 with a 2.57 ERA and 1.03 WHIP and Atlanta has won his last three starts and they all went UNDER. Wright has allowed only 11 runs his last 38 innings and he has given up just five runs in 23 innings on the road this season. The Braves bullpen also is tied for #4 in the majors with a 1.12 WHIP and 22 saves. The Braves have won eight of their past nine road games and eight straight overall versus a team that scored two or fewer runs its previous game. The UNDER is 4-0 in Wright's last four starts as a road favorite and he has stayed UNDER five in a row in the second game of a series. The Cubs have gone UNDER four of five as home underdogs, but most importantly, the wind is forecast to be 16 mph and blowing in at Wrigley Field today. Play the Braves as a Max Play and the UNDER.
