Pick: Atlanta -135
why?
Hotlanta loves it when Jair Jurrjens is on the mound. In his past 9 starts, they won 7 of them. Atlanta isn't only hot when Jurrjens is pitching as they won 7 of their past 9 games overall. The Braves have been hot all season when facing right handed pitchers. You can expect Jurrjens to go 7 strong innings and after that the Braves bullpen that has a 3.15era will take care of the rest.
Chicago doesn't have the worst record in the majors but its okay, as they still have another month to accomplish that. If you look up the word "shit" in the dictionary you will find a picture of the Cubs. They just got swept at home to the Padres, and lost 7 of their past 9 games overall. Their bullpen has been used so much these past few games that they need Dempster to pitch a complete game. That won't happen because the Braves eat right handed pitching alive. The only thing worse than the Cubs these past 2 week are the Cubs playing at Wrigley.
Last night's pick was right on! Hope you guys take advantage of today's pick early because this game starts at 2:20pm EST. The juice on this pick is really nothing considering how bad the Cubs have been. Good luck to all!
Record: 3-0

jurrjens pitch's well at home. His road record is really bad
That wouldn't be a problem as Cubs suck on the road as much as they suck at home. But you do have a valid point. The X-Factor in this game will have to be the bullpen and the Braves bullpen is just too good. Even if they need to come in early they can control the bleeding enough to let the Braves offense come back. Thanks for the comment bud!
what do you think about seattle over newyork. Felix hernadez has a .50 era against them this year and has pitched 3 straight complete games against new york
Last time felix won on the road was June 30th. In his last start he gave up 6 runs against the indians. Yanks won 3 in a row and aj went 8 innings with one earned run in this last start
