how about that fact...
Marlins: Scott Olsen has won each of his last two starts but he's been the beneficiary of strong run support. Olsen has allowed 14 runs in his last 18 innings of work but he's 2-0 with one no-decision over that span. He's been shaky on the road this year, going 2-1 in eight starts with a 4.93 ERA, and the Marlins have dropped four of his last five away from home. The OVER has been a solid play in games where Olsen pitches, going 6-3-1 in his last 10 starts.
Cubs (-240, O/U 8.5): Carlos Zambrano is coming off a loss to the Astros and that's bad news for Florida tonight. In the previous six games the Cubs lost with Zambrano on the mound, they bounced back with a win the next time out. Before his average performance against Houston, Zambrano had only allowed one run in victories over the Cardinals and Reds. Big Z is 5-0 at Wrigley Field this year with an imposing 2.25 ERA. In Zambrano's last five starts, the UNDER is 4-1.
