Cubs vs Blue Jays Betting Preview, Parlay Picks
Cubs Moneyline
We will ride with the road team tonight.
Toronto will send veteran Jose Berrios to the mound. The veteran has posted an ERA of 3.89, paired with a record of 8-4. Berrios has struggled again against this Cubs lineup, allowing a batting average of .333 in 78 at-bats.
Ben Brown will get the nod for the Cubs. Brown has been in strong form lately, allowing one run or less in two consecutive starts.
I expect Brown to be sharp tonight and for the Cubs’ offense to take care of business against Berrios.
Kyle Tucker 1+ Hit
The veteran has been solid in year one with the Cubs. Tucker has collected five hits in fifteen career at-bats against Berrios.
The Cubs’ right fielder will continue his success in this matchup tonight.
