The Cleveland Indians are playing against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois. The Cleveland Indians are throwing right hander, Aaron Civale. Civale is 3-5 this year with a 3.88 ERA. Civale will have to be careful against this talented Cubs squad. The Chicago Cubs are throwing left hander, Jon Lester. Lester is 2-2 on the year with a 5.05 ERA. The Indians are 25th in the MLB in total offense and the Cubs are 26th in the MLB in total offense.

The Cleveland Indians are having a good season, going 26-21 on the year. The Indians have been great on the defensive end but have been struggling offensively. The Indians are led by third basemen, Jose Ramirez. Ramirez is batting .263 this year, to go along with 11 HR and 28 RBIs. Ramirez leads Cleveland in homeruns and RBIs this year.

The Chicago Cubs are having a good season, going 28-20 this year. The Chicago Cubs started the year off so well but have struggled during the middle of the year. The Cubs are led by center fielder, Ian Happ. Happ is batting .273, to go along with 12 HR and 28 RBIs. Happ leads the Cubs in homeruns, RBIs, and batting average this year.

In this matchup I like the Cleveland Indians to win on the under. The Chicago Cubs have not looked great offensively during the middle of this season and the Indian’s have a good pitcher in Civale on the mound. The under has hit in 52 out of both teams combined 95 games. Final score prediction, Cleveland Indians will win with our best play on the under 4-2.
