Chip's MLB Megabucks Best Bet (Rangers/Cubs)
(MLB) Texas vs. Chi Cubs,
Money Line: -136.00 Chi Cubs (Home)
Result: Loss
Texas at Chicago Cubs 2:20 ET
Cubs over Rangers- The last time the Cubs faced Cole Hamels (9-2, 3.21 ERA) he was wearing a Phillies uniform as he pitched for the last time with his former club and threw a no-hitter in Wrigley Field against Chicago. Hamels is 4-1 lifetime against the Cubs but his current teammates are in a bit of a funk right now losing 11 of their last 14 games. Veteran John Lackey (7-5, 3.70) is winless in his last six starts but has allowed just 93 hits in 117 innings and loves to face a challenge. Look for Chicago to complete the series sweep. Take the CUBS!
