Arrieta faces Cards, under good bet
CHICAGO, IL (The Spread) – The Cubs and Cardinals will play a day game today at 2:20PM ET and with Jake Arrieta on the mound vs. St. Louis, the under has been a good bet.
According to oddsmakers from online sports book Bovada.lv, the Cubs are -113 money line favorites versus the Cardinals, who are +104 money line underdogs. The total, meanwhile, is sitting at 7 runs.
The under is 4-1 in the last five meetings between these two teams in Chicago and 3-1-1 in Arrieta’s last five starts versus the Cardinals. When these two teams opened the 2015 MLB season on Sunday night, the under hit in a 3-0 St. Louis victory.
The Cardinals are also 7-3 in Lance Lynn’s last 10 starts versus the Cubs overall. These two teams were postponed due to weather yesterday, so Lynn and Arrieta will pitch on an extra day of rest.
