It doesn't get much worse than the Cubs on the road. They are 17-34 away from Wrigley and really struggle to score. In division games this season, they are 15-29, scoring only 3.7 runs per game. Over their last seven games they have averaged just 3.0 rpg. Ryan Dempster and Jake Westbrook have similar stats on the season, but their recent performance is anything but. Over his last three starts, Dempster has a 6.45 ERA while Westbrook owns a 2.37 ERA over his last three. These pitchers are clearly going in opposite directions. In the underdog role this season, Chicago is 13-32. And when facing an NL opponent that outscores their opponents by 0.5+ runs per game, the Cubbies are just 6-20! Take the Cards here.
