MLB  – (903) CHICAGO CUBS at (904) CINCINNATI  6:40 ET  WGN, FSOH

Is anyone really shocked the Cubs have gone from -105 to +120 against Cincinnati? Let's be realistic here since having Yu Darvish (2-3, 5.40 ERA) as their starter makes every Cubs player and fan think after less than an inning, "Here we go again!". Darvish leads the majors with 33 walks in 36 2/3 innings and obviously has no faith in his fastball, primarily throwing curves and sliders, which he cannot control. Still, Cincinnati right-hander Sonny Gray (0-4, 4.15) does not invoke confidence being winless. This is a hold your nose selection that really seems 50-50 and I'll side with underdog Cubs because of the value.

Betting Trend - 67% backing Chicago

MLB  – (905) MILWAUKEE at (906) PHILADELPHIA 7:05 ET  FSWI, CSP (side and total)

The third contest in this four-game set has Philadelphia as a falling favorite, lowered 20 cents to -110 and the total on the rise from 8.5 to 9. Gio Gonzalez (1-0, 1.69) has been more effective than Jake Arrieta (4-3, 3.78), who has an ERA of 6.19 in his past three starts. Like most pitchers, Gonzalez has more luck at home than on the road, thus, I'll take a flyer on Philly with the lefty 2-10 in road games vs. an NL team with a team batting average of .255 or worse. (Team's record) Otherwise, the total is the more preferred play and hard to overlook the Brewers are 11-1 UNDER on the road when the money line is +125 to -125 this season. 

Betting Trend - 71% backing Under, 59% on Milwaukee

Doug's VPID Take - Play Under, Lean Philadelphia
