The Pittsburgh Pirates lost two of three vs. Milwaukee to fall to 2-4 on the season. The Cubs lead the Central at 4-2 and are the only club in the NL Central over .500 right now. The Pirates offense is hurting and were shutout on just a single hit in their last game, striking out 14 times. They are currently ranked 30th in team average across MLB. Trevor Williams was abused in his first start, and that doesn't bode well here going up against Yu Darvish. The Cubs have scored more runs than any team in baseball and have been great in series openers, taking 10 of their last 12. Make the play on Chicago.
