SITUATIONAL MLB DESTRUCTION (+$13K ALL RUN!)
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. St. Louis,
Money Line: -105.00 Chi Cubs (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* DESTRUCTION on the Cubs.

After winning five straight, and with a chance to move back to .500, I like the Cubs to do just that this evening in St. Louis. These teams played last weekend and the Cubs went 3-1 in the four game series.

The Cards can only play spoiler these days, and I just don't see them getting too excited here to try and stop the Cubs from reaching .500 today.

The starting pitching matchup favors Chicago, as the Cubs hand the ball to Justin Steele, while the home side counters with Miles Mikolas.

Steele is 10-3 with a 2.95 ERA and 1.11 WHIP, while Mikolas is is 6-5 with a 4.33 ERA and 1.31 WHIP.

Mikolas gave up 11 hits and five runs against the Cubs last week and I think he's in for another short night tonight as well. The Cubs offense is now rated in the Top 10 and I expect that momentum to get carried over.

The play is CHICAGO.

Good luck, NP
