Premium Pick

The Pittsburgh Pirates are just 12-19 on the season and have a negative 33 scoring margin on the season. This should be a much better opportunity for Pittsburgh, who will have Paul Skeenes on the mound. Skeenes has quickly become one of the top pitchers in baseball. He brings a 2.39 ERA into this contest. The Cubs are all about offense as they have scored more runs than any team in baseball at 184. The Cubs have a pretty good pitcher of their own as they send Rea to the mound with his 1.35 ERA on the season. Runs will be difficult in this game against top starters for each team. Make the play UNDER the total.

1 unit on Game Total UNDER 8 -115 (risk 1 to return 1.87)
