Milwaukee at Chicago

The Milwaukee Brewers are fighting for the NL Central division, as well as the playoffs. Their recent play has been below average, and it has been going on for a while. Milwaukee is an ugly 6-11 in their last 17 games. The Chicago Cubs have nothing left to play for but that hasn't stopped them from going on a good run. Bad teams have a few times over a long season where they play well above their level, and the Cubs are experiencing that right now. Chicago owns a 10-4 mark in their last 14 games including a thrilling 8-7 win last night in the series opener. These teams are trending opposite, and I will make the play on Chicago.
