Chicago Cubs DFS SPIN
Christopher Morel went 2-for-5 with a home run in the Cubs 10-6 win on Saturday night against Milwaukee. With Saturday’s home run, Morel tied teammate, Cody Bellinger with 26 home runs for the year which leads all Cubs in that category. Catcher, Yan Gomes also had a big night at the plate Saturday launching a grand slam in the top of the 1 st inning, before ultimately finishing the night with 5 RBI’s.
Milwaukee Brewers DFS SPIN
Willy Adames finished the night 3-5 with 2 RBI’s on Saturday. This is a welcome sign for the Brewers as they will need the talented shortstop to improve on a .216 regular season average come October if the Brewers are to make a deep playoff run.

Cubs vs. Brewers MLB BETTING PREDICTION
It was a little too late for Chicago in terms of their playoff hopes. Despite their win on Saturday night, they were officially eliminated from the playoffs with the Marlins win against Pittsburgh. All the Cubs have to play for now is pride in the season finale. Chicago will hand the ball to Justin Steele who has struggled as of a late, allowing nine earned runs over his last 8.1 innings of work. Despite his recent struggles, I trust Steele to bounce back in this spot and finish off his great year with a win. Chicago is the play here.
Cubs vs. Brewers MLB BETTING PREDICTION: Chicago Cubs -115
