Cubs Continue to Be on a Roll

The Cubs are playing well and we get them facing a Guardians team that has lost seven of their last eight games starting on Monday. This one will be played in Cleveland, ensuring some good betting value.

Cleveland did go 2-1 last season against Chicago.

On Monday we have Shota Imanaga starting for the Cubs. He allowed two earned runs over seven innings while striking out 10 to earn the win on Tuesday against the Twins. Before that Imanaga was not part of the decision.

Cubs Cody Bellinger has not missed in three at bats versus Cleveland slated starter Ben Lively, nor has Mike Tauchman in two at bats.

Lively gave up four runs in five innings to take a loss to the Diamondbacks in the first game of Wednesday’s doubleheader.

Diego Garcia is 6-1 over his last seven plays at the G911 Sports Hub and he's backing Cleveland.

The Guardians come into this one winners of their last two games so perhaps they're getting that ship in order.

Consensus Cappers on Royals But We Like Twins

Pablo Lopez starting for the Twins has faced these Royals on 108 occasions, allowing just 5 RBIs (.185). Let's just say we won't be betting against him here despite a number of top G911 Sports Hub cappers pouncing on the Royals. Minnesota is a -160 favorite here for a reason.

He is also coming off a loss in his last start to the Cubs.

Brady Singer has been beat up bad by Byron Buxton (7 for 15 with four RBIs) and Trevor Larnach (5 for 10 with 3 RBIs).

While Travis Kelce didn't score last week, he did have the most receiving yards of these three: 3 catches for 71 yards, including a huge 59-yard reception and pays better than $500 for every $100 bet to have the most in Sunday night's game.
