Cubs Favored in Run Line Betting as They Look to Improve Offense in Night Games

Chicago has the sixth-highest run line winning percentage as favorites (47.0%) and Colorado has the third-lowest run line winning percentage as underdogs (49.6%), according to TeamRankings.com. The Cubs have a night record of 79 GP with a slash rate of .263 BA/.342 OBP/.435 SLG/.777 OPS. Their offence has improved in the second half of the season providing them with 1.1 more runs per game since the All-Star Weekend. Opposing pitcher Flexen has pitched 47.1 innings in 13 home appearances conceding 12 home runs with a 35:20 K:BB ratio. Meanwhile, Assad has been effective on the road (41.1 innings only 29 hits) and night games (1.13 WHIP). With -114 odds, betting four units on the Cubs RL is a great value pick.
