Schule's MLB MERCHANT of DEATH
(MLB) Cincinnati vs. Chi Cubs, 07/27/2021 8:05 PM, Score: 7 - 4
Point Spread: 1.50 | -116.00 Cincinnati (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on Cincinnati.

The Cubs won Game 1 with an extra innings walk off, but I really don't see this team being such a huge favorite here in Game 2. They have already started selling off players, and this team is headed toward a rebuild.

Adbert Alzolay will toe the slab for Chicago, and he's lost four of his last five starts. One of those was a 3-2 loss to Cincinnati. where he allowed three runs on five hits over seven innings.

The Reds hand the ball to Vlad Gutierrez, who has won consecutive starts on the road. He allowed three runs on 10 hits in 12 innings in wins at Kansas City and Milwaukee.

The Cubs have lost four of their last five versus the Reds.
