I went 1-2 -1.04 units yesterday. If the Twins and Blue Jays bullpens didn't screw up, I would have gone 3-0.
Rangers +123
Pros: McCarthy is a good pitcher. The one big question mark in this game is whether or not he will be able to go many innings. He has gone 6 innings in his last two starts. Hopefully that will be enough with Texas' awful pen. I envision Byrd getting hit hard, since the Ranger's offense is starting to hit again.
Cons: Ranger's atrocious bullpen.
Cubs -126
Pros: Despite the Cub's recent struggles, they are still one of the best teams in the National League. They are much better than the Reds. Aaron Harang has been hit hard on a few occasions this year by the Cubs. Sean Marshall should have a comfortable lead to work with in this game. Take the better all around team in this contest.
Cons: Not sure how many innings Marshall will give us.
