Houston at Chicago

It has been a long season for both these teams and the Houston Astros have endured thair second straight 100 loss season. It is impossible to back Houston on the road with their 18-60 road mark particularly at almost even odds. The Cubs have to sweep to avoid the 100 loss mark and they have been a decent team at home where they are 37-41 on the season. The Astros haven't fared much better on the road vs. a losing team where they are 12-40 in their last 52. The Cubs aren't posted as home chalk often, but have been a profitable 11-5 in their last 16 in this role. Play on the Cubs in this one.
