BREWERS KEY TRENDS: The Brewers have won seven of their last eight road games and are 5-1 in their last six games overall. They’re also a perfect 6-0 in their last six road games when facing a right-handed starter and have won four straight games a righty overall.
CUBS KEY TRENDS: The Cubs just got swept by the Pirates at home but they’re still 36-16 in their last 52 games at Wrigley Field. They’re also 25-9 in their last 35 games coming off a loss, are 61-30 in their last 92 games overall, and are a perfect 4-0 in Lackey’s last four starts against National League Central rivals.
Bet Tonight’s Brewers vs. Cubs Game
OUR PICK: In 13 innings of work thus far, Anderson has two quality starts, owns a 0.69 ERA and a 0.80 WHIP. So he’s due for a clunky and I’m rolling the dice that it’s tonight in Chicago. The Brewers have won just 10 times in their last 35 meetings with the Cubs and are 8-20 in their last 28 games at Wrigley Field. The Cubs aren’t going to keep losing at home, but hopefully their offense shows up so bettors can cash on the runline tonight.
