The Chicago Cubs despite all their injuries are 16-9 this season. Boston comes into this interleague series at 14-12. The Cubs are coming off a sweep of the Astros. They rank seventh in team OPS and are putting up 5.32 runs per game. The Chicago Cubs will send Shota Imanaga to the mound for his fifth start. He is 3-0 with a 0.84 ERA and a 0.75 WHIP in 21.1 innings. The BoSox will send Kutter Crawford for his sixth start. He is 1-0 with a 0.66 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP in 27.1 innings. With both pitchers having great seasons I will have to look at the better offense. The Cubs are fifth in run production while the Red Sox are 15th. The Cubs have been dealing with injuries to key offensive players but are still finding ways to produce runs and win games. Their bullpen is a little shaky but I still like them to get a road win here.

Play on Chicago. This is a 3% play.
