Premium Pick

The Chicago Cubs are not going to catch the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central. That hasn't stopped this team from playing themselves just 4.5 games out in the NL wild card race. The Cubs came into this series having won nine out of their last 10, but have dropped the first two games of this series and are on a mission to avoid the sweep. The Cubs have been very hard to beat with Shota Imanaga on the mound. Imanga has 25 decisions this season, and the Cubs are 19-6 in those games. While the odds seem high here on the Cubs, Imanga has led them to a 19-6 mark, which would indicate a better than 3-1 odds favorite to win. Make the play on the Chicago Cubs.
