Vegas odds on Tuesday's Cubs-Indians game


by - Senior Editor -

The Chicago Cubs will play against a tough Cleveland Indians squad starting on Tuesday night at Progressive Field. The matchup will start at 5:10 p.m. CT and will be televised on WGN-TV, SportsTime Ohio, and MLB.TV.

Cubs will have Tyler Chatwood on the mound (0-3, 4.60 ERA) against righty Josh Tomlin (0-2, 8.00 ERA).

The Vegas odds on the game has Chicago as the underdog (+105) to Cleveland (-115). The total runs scored is currently sitting at 8.5 runs.

The Cubs are 10-9 straight up this year and interestingly also 10-9 against the spread. If the Cubs are going to snap out of their early-season funk, it will have to be led by their starting pitching as they own a cumulative 5.27 ERA and 1.56 WHIP.

However, Javy Baez could make things interesting tonight as has been on a tear this season hitting .292 with seven homers, 23 RBIs, and 18 runs scored.
