    Saw this stat, I really think this is a no bet type of game, but as I said, every bet against the Cubs is a good bet. They are not playing like a Major's team, not even close.

    I agree that fading Cubs is a winning strategy, hell their down like 20u this season, but its when they are heavy favs one should fade away.. This match-up is a no bet for me, Zambrano is as posted earlier 7-1 against SF AND 2.76 ERA so cubs or not its a no bet for me, the under is the best bet imo if playing the game

    Stay away from this game IMO. SF "should" win but I don't like the line even though normally I love fading the Cubs almost every game. I like the Brewers at home against ARI. much better and even STL on road against Reds seems good as well. GL

    SF may win, hell you're laying -160 or so if they only win 50% of the time you are losing your ass. Absolute pass or small play on Cubs. Probably will pass, I'm not a Cub fan but at this sort of plus money with Z-man on the hill they are certainly worth a long look. Good luck guys.

    Not that I ignore trends like this, WC, but I also don't put a lot of stock in them considering Z isn't the Z of old, the Cubs aren't as good as they were when he was in his prime, and the Giants are much better now than they were back then.

    I've slept on this bet, and I'm still thinking SF for a decent amount. We'll see.

    Cubs do suck, but there are some things making me weary of playing SF.

    1. First game back from a mini East Coast trip where they struggled;
    2. Not sure how Z will respond - he just might come out lights out;
    3. Bumgardner looked shaky in his last outing

    GL whatever you decide. Might be best to sit this one out.

    Not necessarily, most people like Carpenter. I'm seeing 65% on STL.
    Definitely like SF. But I'll just stick w/ the ML. I hate doing RL on the home team. good luck today bro

    CUBS ARE GARBAGE THIS SEASON. Zambrano is not the same. I think these stats are irrelevent.

    Look, Giants are still trying to chase Padres and this is a GREAT time to do it. Giants offense is stepping up, and Cubs are garbage and they're on the road.

    the trend continues. Every team I bet on that is favored makes the opposing pitcher look like Cy Young. Zambrano 2 hits through 4.

    Yep.

    Nothing in the world indicates they should win this game, which means they will.
