    Cubs @ Phillies Total opens at 8.5? Smells bad here..

    Cubs and Phillies are 2 of the worst offensive teams playing right now.
    I am a local chicagoan who has watched/wagered a good amount of homer bets.
    Arietta Is a stud, shuttting doen teams left and right for the most part.

    With Phillies dead bats and Cubs inconsistent hitting, 8.5 is way too high

    Plus this may be one of maybe 6-8 times i saw a cubs total open past 8.

    So many on the under today as well.....

    Looks like this game may be much more entertaining than most think.

    Dont understand why philly is favored either. I cant see arietta giving up more than 3 to them

    Since the public railed the under, total moved down to 8
    The play has to be the OVER 8

    You're overthinking yourself

    Cubs love to give up runs towards the end... plus this ump has been extremely pitcher friendly

    Philly's SP Hernandez gets ejected

    Hopefully this ends up helping everyone's action!

    Hernandez and Manager gets tossed, theres still some hope. Hernandez got the bad end of a call there though, should still be throwing

    Ì actually read your message thinking that you were saying the Under is the play. Looks good so far but hope they dont start smashing it late which is what you think might happen
