It isn't often you get the Cubs with Carlos Zambrano on the mound as a dog. He should be fired up after getting suspended for disputing a bad call too vigorously, and would expect his "A" game here which is tough to beat. The Cubs stand at 6-2 with Zambrano on the hill, and that includes 3-1 on the road, where the Cubs have outscored their opponents 21-14 in the four games. That runs the Cubs’ record to 16-5 in Zambrano's last 21 road starts. He faced Atlanta just once last year and was a winner allowing two runs in seven innings. The Braves’ Jair Jurrjens, was roughed-up for five runs in his last start vs. Arizona, and his May ERA doubled his April ERA. The Cubs are now 39-15 in Zambrano's last 54 road starts, so getting the plus side of the moneyline here certainly speaks of value, so I'll play on the Cubs here.
