Milwaukee at Chicago

Futility has followed the Chicago Cubs for a while, while the Brewers are experiencing it for the first time in a few years. This Milwaukee team was a playoff team a year ago, but that's not the case this season. As a result, it would be easy to see them go on the road as a very unmotivated team down the stretch. This is a team that recently lost five out of six road games to Houston and Colorado, so the Cubs as a dog here certainly are carrying some potential bite. Marco Estrada is getting a long look from the Brewers, but he has yet to win on the road where he is 0-3 carrying a 4.6 ERA. The Cubs are a winning team at home on the seasson, and when they have faced a team below .500 at home they are 12-3 in their last 15. Milwaukee is just 5-13 this season on the road vs. teams that are under .470. Play on Chicago.
