Detroit Tigers at Chicago Cubs

Chicago Before the Bullpen Door

The pick: Chicago Cubs ML at −108 (FanDuel)

Lost. Final: Detroit Tigers 5, Chicago Cubs 1.

The Cubs are the better team at near-even money, and the single biggest reason this ticket cashes is that Detroit is averaging 3.8 runs per game over their last five while walking into a 57-44 home club that has been scoring 6.4 runs per game over that same stretch.
