METS VS CUBS PREDICTION

The Mets opened at -140 at most books but the line is dropping because Sharps are hitting the Cubs early. With Zach Davies on the mound, you would expect the Mets to be getting the sharp action but the Mets offense is struggling to score with only 5 runs in the previous 3 games. The Cubs haven’t started the year off very well but they have won 2 of the last 3 games while scoring 20 runs in those games. The Mets lefty-Peterson gives up the long ball which will be dangerous facing these Cubs at Wrigley with the wind blowing out. The Cubs are hitting left-handed pitching much better than right-handed pitching this season so look for the Cubs to get another win in this spot.
