10* NATIONAL LEAGUE TOTAL - 155-129 YTD!
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. Milwaukee, 09/19/2021 2:10 PM, Score: 6 - 4
Total: 9.00 | -118.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* NL TOTAL on the UNDER Cubs/Brewers.

Both teams have been playing to several high-scoring affairs of late, but I think the value on the total has now finally swung the other way.

The Cubs are looking to play spoiler for the rest of the year. They go with Adrian Sampson, who is 1-2 with a 2.53 ERA. He's off his first win of the year, giving up two runs and striking out three over six innings. I look for Sampson to continue his progression here.

The Brewers go with Eric Lauer, who is 6-5 with a 3.10 ERA and who allowed one run while striking out eight over six innings in a win over the Indians on Sunday.

Lauer is now 2-0 with a 0.93 ERA over his last three innings of work.

Finally, note, the Cubs have seen the total go UNDER in eight of their last 11 after playing to three or more straight OVERs in a row.

This number is high, the play is the UNDER.

Good luck, NP
