Premium Pick

The Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chicago Cubs saw their game last night get suspended in the 6th inning tied at 3, and the finish of that game will take place prior to this one. The Pirates have a lot more depth on the bench and in the pen, and should have a significant edge here. The Cubs will go with former Boston starter Felix Doubront, who has had no success at 3-4 with a huge 5.56 ERA. Francisco Liriano has deserved better with five quality starts in his last six turns, but failed to record a win in August despite the efforts. Liriano has a strong track record vs. Chicago where he owns a 2.59 ERA in eight career starts against them. The Cubs have been futile as a big home dog from +151 to +200 where they have posted just an 11-29 mark in their last 40. Play on Pittsburgh in this one.
