The Cubs snapped their hideous 11-game losing streak, beating the Phillies, 8-3, on Wednesday. The Cubs did it by lighting up Zach Wheeler for five runs in the first two innings. Wheeler entered the matchup with a 1.15 ERA in his last six starts.
This was an impressive victory for the Cubs and I believe they'll ride this momentum and beat the Phillies again.
Chicago is 27-15 at home. Philadelphia is 17-27 on the road.
I also like the Cubs' starter, Adbert Alzolay, more than the Phillies starter, Zach Eflin. Alzolay has a 1.08 WHIP. The Cubs have the superior closer by far in Craig Kimbrel.
