The Cubs are a big favorite today after winning five of seven and have a big mismatch on the mound. New York goes with Dillon Gee, who is 2-5 with a 6.13 ERA walking 16 in 39+ innings and 53 hits allowed....that's a whopping 69 base runners! And he's getting worse with a 6.43 ERA his last three starts. The Mets are 4-10 in their last 14 road games and their last four losses have been big, 8-2, 4-2, 10-4 and 6-3. They face a confident Cubs team on a roll with Travis Wood (4-2, 2.03 ERA) on the hill. The lefty is off a 9-1 win over the Rockies, one of the best offensive teams in baseball. Now he faces a Mets offense that is 21st in runs, 27th in on base percentage, and 25th in slugging. Chicago is 7-3 the last 10 meetings, and the Mets are 5-11 in the last 16 meetings in Chicago. Play the Cubs on the Run-Line.
