The Pirates are 7-3 over the last 10 games. Pittsburgh is 7-1 in their last 8 road games. The Cubs, meanwhile, are 2-7 in their last 9 games following a win.
AJ Burnett is 7-2 when starting against Chicago Cubs with an ERA of 3.08 and a WHIP of 1.135. His team's record is 7-3 in these starts. It should also be noted that Burnett is looking to improve his record to 5-0 at Wrigley.
Don’t be fooled by Burnett’s 4-6 record. During his six-game winless streak, the Pirates ace allowed three runs or fewer five times over that period.
Chris Villanueva is 0-2 when starting against Pittsburgh with an ERA of 8.00 and a WHIP of 2.222. His team's record is 0-2 in these starts.
Colorado/Arizona UNDER 9 – Patrick Corbin is coming off his first loss for Arizona after going 9-0 to start the season. We would anticipate him to be especially motivated coming into this one.
Roy Oswalt is 9-3 with a 2.35 ERA in 13 starts against Arizona, but has not faced them since 2011 when he allowed five runs in three innings of a 7-5 loss while with Philadelphia. Oswalt is a little more shaky, having allowed nine hits in each of his starts. He has also struck out 21.
More importantly, 10 of 11 games in this series have gone UNDER.
