Our Texas Rangers vs Chicago Cubs Prediction
The Cubs are again the favorite, and rightly so, as they look to be the best betting option. For the Cubs, Cabrera not only has good overall numbers, but he has been even better when pitching on the road. In two away starts, Cabrera has allowed three earned runs over 11.1 innings.
Leiter, on the other hand, has three home starts this season, in which he has allowed nine runs (eight earned) over 16.0 innings. On top of that, the Cubs’ offense has been consistently scoring runs to support their starting pitcher. Therefore, given the form of both teams, our Texas Rangers vs Chicago Cubs prediction is: Chicago Cubs ML.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
