Chicago at Atlanta

Sometimes the renewed energy of a new season, propels a team emotionally to start the season. The Cubs are not a good team, but they have gotten off to a 2-2 start, and don't realize they are bad yet. Julio Teheran will make his first start and the expectations are high, but he could also be a bundle of nerves on the mound. He has a total of four major league starts with not much success, with a 5.19 ERA. The Braves have wilted against the NL Central where they are 1-6 in their last seven against them. The Cubs pitching has been better than advertised, allowing just 2.5 runs per contest through four games. Take the dog, and go with Chicago.
