With a day game at Wrigley, the wind is predicted to be blowing in. The Astros have seen 14 of their 22 and seven of their last ten games go under the number. Verlander should be able to limit the Cubs bats early, especially without Bellinger in the lineup. This will be the first time for the Astros hitters to face Assad. The Astros are 19th in the majors at 4.08 runs per game overall and 3.27 runs on the road. The Cubs are fifth in the majors at 5.48 runs per game overall and 6.27 runs at home. I like both pitchers over the opposing offenses and without Bellinger, the Cubs are missing a key part of the offense.

Play on the UNDER. This is a 3% play.
