New York Mets at Chicago Cubs 7:40 ET
Cubs over Mets- The Mets are starting to pay off for owner Steve Cohen who has a blank check when it comes to signings as they have won their last five games. New York had won just six of 22 games before their current winning streak started. Chicago opened the season 11-6 but have gone 9-20 since including dropping eight of their last 14 at home and they just completed a 2-7 road trip. Burt, the Cubs are going with Drew Smyly (4-1,2.86 ERA) and he is 2-0 with a 2.21 ERA in four career starts against the Mutts. Take the CUBS!
