Prediction: Chicago Cubs VS Philadelphia Phillies 2025-06-10

The Chicago Cubs are looking to take down the struggling Philadelphia Phillies, and I've got to say, the odds are looking good for the Cubbies. The Phillies are favored at -151, but let's be real, they've been on a five-game losing streak and are missing their superstar Bryce Harper. That's like trying to make a cheesesteak without the cheese - it's just not the same.

The Cubs, on the other hand, have a strong 40-25 record and are four games ahead in the National League Central. They've got a high-octane offense that's been crushing it all season, with the second-most runs in the league. And let's not forget about Pete Crow-Armstrong, who's been hitting homers like it's his job (oh wait, it is).

Zack Wheeler is a great pitcher, but I think the Cubs' offense is going to give him a run for his money. Matthew Boyd is no slouch either, and I think he's going to keep the Phillies' offense in check.

My best bet for this game is the Chicago Cubs at +130 (or around 2.0) on the moneyline. I think they've got a great chance of taking down the Phillies and I'm willing to take the underdog odds to make some cash. The over/under is set at 9.0, but I think the Cubs' offense is going to push that number up, so I'd take the over at +1.87.

So, there you have it. The Cubs are going to take down the Phillies, and I'm going to take down the bookies. Place your bets, folks!
