Chicago has realized they are incapable of meeting serious tournament goals and have since started to lose everything they can. David Ross's team was coming into Game 1 of the series with Atlanta with 11 losses in their last 12 games. The Cubs have lost three of four games to St. Louis. They failed to Baltimore, were beaten by the New York Yankees three times, and lost four games in a row to the San Diego Padres. With a 23-40 balance, the Cubs are 13th in the National League standings. Only two teams are higher, Washington and Cincinnati.
The Cubs' starting pitcher for game one of their series with the Braves is Keegan Thompson, 6-2, and with a 3.67 ERA in 14 starts in this league.
Atlanta Braves
The Braves were just behind the conference leaders at the start of the championship. Before the series at Wrigley Field, they had won 14 straight. That's an impressive result! However, it should be taken into account that during that stretch, Atlanta had to deal exclusively with the season's underdogs - Colorado, Arizona, Oakland, Pittsburgh, and Washington.
Thanks to the winning streak, Atlanta got only 4.5 wins closer to their division leader, the New York Mets. The Braves are 37-27. The Mets are 42-23. Atlanta has already moved up to fourth in the NL standings.
Pitching for the Braves in the upcoming game will be legendary veteran Charlie Morton, 4-3, and a 5.67 ERA in 12 starts this season.
Expert Betting Tips
Atlanta's level of play has been insane of late. So it's unlikely that the Braves will be able to put up much resistance at Wrigley Field. The Cubs have been poor and lost ten games in a row. The prediction is for Atlanta to win in a high-scoring game.
