The Cubs are a major early exposure for the books with 90% of the bets coming in on Chicago in their 2:30 pm EST game against Atlanta.


This one opened at Cubs -225 and had come down to -200 but went back up to around -220 again.

The Cubs have won eight of the last ten meetings versus Atltanta.

After a lackluster debut, Yu Darvish was dominant in his second start with the Cubs though he failed to factor into the decision in the end.

The other exposure on the day was Cleveland, which delivered a nice win for us yesterday but the line on this game has not moved much, opening at -130 and hovering around -128 most books.

Over 90% of those betting this game were backing the Indians early on. 

The Mets are another heavy exposure with some books bringing the number down to -119 and better than 90% of the early bets on New York.

Milwaukee has won six of the last ten meetings against the Mets but are just 2-7 in the last 9 meetings in New York.

Brewers RH Zach Davies (0-1, 5.40 ERA) rebounded nicely from a season-opening loss to St. Louis by striking out eight and allowing one run on four hits in six innings versus the Chicago Cubs, although he had to settle for a no-decision. It’s time for a victory Friday having won 17 last year.  Plus he is unbeaten in four starts (2-0, 4.22 ERA) against New York and has limited Jay Bruce to going just 1-for-14.

The Mets LH Steven Matz (0-1, 3.00) and is 4.15 ERA in two starts against Milwaukee, fanning 13 with zero walks over 13 innings.

The Brewers are 11-5 in Davies' last 16 road starts The Brewers are 11-5 in Davies' last 16 road starts while the Mets are 1-5 in Matzs last 6 home starts.
