Chicago Cubs DFS SPIN
Cody Bellinger went 2-4, with a single and home run in the Cubs’ 6-2 victory over the Blue Jays on Friday. Bellinger is batting a career-high .329 in his first season in the Windy City. H’s turned things up since returning the break, recording a hit in 22 of his previous 25 games. The two-time All Star has also totaled multiple bases in six of his last seven contests, and produced a run in eight of the previous ten. Bellinger is among NL leaders in batting percentage, while hitting 17 homers and 56 RBI.
Milwaukee Brewers DFS Spin
Carlos Santana went 2-4, with a pair of singles and a walk in the win over Minnesota. Santana’s return to the Midwest has been embraced and he’s been a huge factor in the Brewers playoff push. Santana has recorded a hit in five straight wins for Milwaukee while producing runs in all three matchups during the interleague sweep of Texas. Santana has filled the void of power bat in the Brew Crew’s lineup and has tallied eighteen homers and 66 RBJ for the season.

The 1st Inning 1 OVER 0.5 runs market has hit in each of the Padres’ last four road games.
Cubs vs. Brewers MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Milwaukee comes into this series with a ton of momentum. Although the Padres have the bats to stop the Brewers, they haven’t performed well over the past two weeks. Throw in an inconsistent Yu Darvish going to the hill for the Pads, and this spot feels a bit messy for them. I believe they halt the Brew Crew’s streak at some point this weekend, but with the steady Brandon Woodruff set to go Friday, we may be in for more of the same. Let’s trust Milwaukee’s momentum here, and back them for game one at home.
