SBG Global Opening Line: Cubs -115, Total 8 Under (-120)
Two teams playing excellent baseball of late meet on Monday in Chicago as the Cubs take on the Philadelphia Phillies. The Cubs have surged to within a half game of the Brewers for the NL Central lead while the Phillies are just 3.5 in back of the Mets in the NL East. SBG Global reports that early betting has the public taking the Cubs at home.
Carlos Zambrano earned his major league-leading 14th win Sunday as Chicago won 6-0 over Cincinnati. With a win tonight the Cubs would move percentage points in front of the Brewers who are idle. The Cubs go with Ted Lilly (11-4, 3.46 ERA), who is looking for his eighth consecutive win. He is 7-0 in eight starts since June 15, and has a 1.83 ERA in five starts this month. He gave up one run and six hits over seven innings of Wednesday's 7-1 victory at St. Louis. Lilly held the Phillies to one run and three hits in seven innings of a 4-1 victory on May 13th.
The Cubs are a PK with a total of 8 under (-125) at SBG Global.
