2015 Season MLB Baseball Past Picks

The Chicago Cubs rank 23rd in baseball in runs scored and are in Atlanta, a big park. The Cubs have not provided their pitchers much support lately, scoring two runs or fewer in 14 of the past 21 contests. The Cubs are 4-9 against a right-handed starter and face one of the best in Shelby Miller (2.38 ERA). Atlanta leads the majors with 28 wins from starting pitchers age 24 or younger and has a winning home record, on an 8-3 run at home. The Braves are 7-2 at home against a team with a winning record, plus 35-16 at home vs. a team with a winning road record. When these NL teams clash, the Cubs are 3-12 in the last 15 meetings, including 1-8 in this park, so jump on the home dog. Play Atlanta.
