CUBS VS GIANTS PREDICTION

The Cubs and the Giants currently sit at the top of their respective divisions. The Cubs have won 9 of the last 10 games and the Giants have won 6 of the last 10. The Cubs have a team career batting average of .300 against DeSclafani with Happ, Pederson, Bryant, and Sogard hitting over .300. Rizzo, Pederson, Bryant, and Baez have all taken DeSclafani deep as well with multiple homers by 3 of the 4. The Giants are expected to be without Yastrzemski because of a thumb injury and Longoria is questionable which will be big losses to the Giants as both have good numbers against Davies. DeSclafani has been slipping in his last 3 games he posted a 8.15 ERA while giving up almost 6 walks and 2 home runs per game. The Cubs have had struggles on the road early this season but the way they are playing lately you have to take the hotter team with the + money.
