Our Chicago Cubs vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction
Chicago is the favorite in this game; however, the under looks to be the best betting option. An under bet directly correlates with how solid the starting pitchers have been this season. For Gausman, he has made a total of six away starts, having allowed 15 earned runs over 34.2 innings. Brown, on the other hand, has made nine home appearances (two starts) and has allowed seven runs (six earned) over 26.1 innings.
The Cubs do have a top 10 offense this season in terms of runs per game, but the Blue Jays are in the bottom third in the same category. Because of that, the Cubs look likely to do most of the scoring, and therefore, our Chicago Cubs vs Toronto Blue Jays prediction is: Under 7.5 Total Runs.
