The Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers meet Monday in MLB action at American Family Field. The Cubs need a win after losing six of their last nine games. The Brewers look for a win after winning seven of their last eight games.

The Chicago Cubs have scored five runs in their last three games and three or less runs in eight of their last 10 games. The Cubs have lost four straight games when scoring three or less runs. Kris Bryant leads the Cubs with 69 hits and 41 RBI while Anthony Rizzo and Javier Baez have combined for 118 hits and 79 RBI. Kyle Hendricks gets the ball, and he is 10-4 with a 3.84 ERA and 70 strikeouts this season. Hendricks is 10-6 with a 2.73 ERA and 137 strikeouts in his career against the Brewers.


The Milwaukee Brewers have scored 20 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in seven of their last nine games. The Brewers have won six straight games when scoring four or more runs. Avisail Garcia leads the Brewers with 58 hits and 43 RBI while Kolten Wong and Luis Urias have combined for 112 hits and 54 RBI. Freddy Peralta gets the ball, and he is 7-2 with a 2.11 ERA and 114 strikeouts this season. Peralta is 4-1 with a 3.38 ERA and 43 strikeouts in his career against the Cubs.

The Cubs are 2-5 in their last 7 Monday games and 2-5 in their last 7 road games. The Brewers are 10-3 in their last 13 home games and 21-8 in their last 29 overall. The under is 6-0 in Cubs last 6 overall. The over is 5-2 in Brewers last 7 games as a home favorite. The Cubs are 2-6 in the last 8 meetings.

Quick turnaround for the Cubs who played last night and their offense continues to come up short. The Brewers have had success against the Cubs in recent meetings, the offense is coming off a solid series against the Rockies and Peralta has been highly impressive this season. I have to side with the Brewers and the reasonable price at home.
