Texas at Chicago

The Chicago Cubs have gone more than a century since they last won the World Series, and their prospects this season remain very remote to get there. They are off to their typical bad start, but they have the right arm on the hill for the matinee vs. Texas. Carlos Villanueva has been very sharp early, and has pitched to an 0.64 ERA to start the season. Alexi Ogando has been equally impressive for the Rangers with a 1.08 ERA through three starts. The Cubs have been more competitive than their record, and the Rangers have seen each of their last six games decided by 2 runs or less. The Cubs have been at their best at home vs. a team with a road winning percentage greater than .600, where they are 7-2 over their last nine. Take the Cubs.
