Chicago at Philadelphia

Yes, very big line. But one well worth laying. Philly goes for their third straight series win and with Brett Myers, I think they get it. Myers is hot right now having not lost in 5 starts, posting a 2.57 ERA over that span. Versus the Cubs, he's 4-2 with a 2.68 ERA. Countering for Chicago is Les Warlond who has only started one game. In that game he was tagged by St. Louis for 6 runs and was yanked in the third inning. He's pitched a total of ten and two thirds innings and has given up 10 runs. Chicago is 29-47 on the road this year. Philadelphis scores 5.4 per game at home. Phillies too much for the Cubs here.
