CUBS VS BRAVES PREDICTION

The Cubbies have now lost 5 games straight which is why the public is pounding the Braves. Alzolay is a young upcoming pitcher, his ERA is not the best but his WHIP shows he’s had some bad luck. The Cubs have a good history against Wilson with a team batting average of .407 and if you pair that with a hungry team that hasn’t won in a while it’s going to be a recipe for disaster for the Braves today. Take the Cubs to break the losing streak here and get a win in a spot the Braves are overlooking with the wind blowing out.
