Diamondbacks vs. Cubs Odds, Picks, Predictions: The Wrong Team Is Favored (Saturday, May 21)

Arizona Diamondbacks beat Chicago Cubs 10-6 on Friday. The Diamondback's are 3-7 in their last 10 games. Chicago is 5-5 in its last ten games and is favored to win this Saturday.

Arizona Diamondbacks beat Chicago Cubs 10-6 on Friday afternoon. The weather should not be a factor in Saturday's game. Arizona Diamondback's are 3-7 in their last 10 games. Chicago Cub's record is 5-5 in that period.

Madison Bumgarner will start for Arizona against the Cubs. Bumiard has had an odd season with a 2.29 ERA, 4.57 FIP and 5.19 xFIP. On the road, he has a sparkling 2,81 ERA over 16 road innings with 5,04 Fip. Arizona's offense has been quietly solid on the away road against left-handed pitchers.

Justin Steele is going to start for the Cubs against the Cardinals. He has a 5.52 ERA and a 4.53 FIP at home this season. The Cubs' offense has struggled recently.

There isn't a huge sample here, but considering their overall struggles and Bumgarner's luck, who knows?

The statistics and team records give the Diamondbacks an edge. The odds favor the Cubs, but the moneyline is in plus money. I'm taking the Arizona money line.

Diamondbacks vs. Cubs is on Saturday, May 21.
