10* NL Game of the Week
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. NY Mets,
Money Line: -119.00 Chi Cubs (Away)
Result: Loss
The Cubs are 25-11 on the road and have won 3 straight.
John Lackey struggled in his previous outing, his shortest of the season at 4 1/3 innings, when he gave up seven runs vs. the Marlins. He is a very good pitcher and I expect him to bounce back tonight with a solid game and the Cubs offense is clicking with Bryant and Rizzo.
He's 2-0 with a 1.98 ERA in four career starts against the Mets.
The Mets have struggled lately with their poor offense and their pitchers are also banged up.
