Premium Pick
2.5 units on Washington -165 (moneyline) (risk 2.5 to return 3.97)
Result:
WIN

A tough situational spot for Chicago, one of the worst offensive teams in the league. This is their sixth straight road game as part of an 11-game trip. They had that stunning sweep at Boston, part of a four-game win streak, but then ran out of gas yesterday in a 13-0 loss. The Cubs are 9-20 in their last 29 road games vs. a team with a winning record. The Cubs are also 7-17 against a righty and face a dynamite righty in Jordan Zimmermann (6-4, 2.95 ERA). Zimmerman won Monday against the Rockies as he pitched six innings, allowed two runs, seven hits, and one walk to go along with five strikeouts. Zimmerman continues to excel as he has allowed two runs or less in each of his last six starts. Washington is 36-16 at home against a team with a losing record and 13-3 as home chalk. And the Cubs are 4-9 in the last 13 meetings in Washington. Play Washington.
