Cubs to win vs. Pirates
The Cubs turn to Jordan Wicks (0-1, 6.28 ERA) in an attempt to avoid their 10th loss in a row, but their lineup will need to get going against Pirates starter Braxton Ashcraft (3-2, 2.89 ERA) to have a chance. Chicago has scored five or more runs in just two games during this nine-game losing streak, so run support has been at a minimum for a depleted rotation. The SportsLine model does believe the losing stops on Tuesday as the Cubs win in 53% of simulations. You can trade for Chicago on Kalshi at 46 cents per share.
