Orioles vs Cubs Prediction, Betting Analysis
Matthew Boyd will start in another home game for the Cubs. Boyd is 9-0 with a 1.95 ERA with 0.85 WHIP in 10 starts at Wrigley Field.
Specifically, Boyd will start in a game that activates one of our PRO betting systems: Wrigley Field Unders.
This system focuses exclusively on Wrigley Field games where the wind is blowing in or cross-field and the total opens between eight and 13. Wrigley is uniquely sensitive to weather due to its field orientation and lack of dome, making it the premier ballpark for wind-based betting edges.
Pick: Under 8
