Prediction: Colorado Rockies VS Chicago Cubs 2025-05-28
The Colorado Rockies, the team that's been making history for all the wrong reasons. With a record of 9-45, they're on pace to finish 27-135, which would be a record-breaking season of futility. I mean, who needs wins when you can have a participation trophy, right?
On the other hand, the Chicago Cubs are cruising, with a 33-21 record and a 24-11 mark in games they've been favored on the moneyline. They're like the cool kids in school, while the Rockies are, well, the kid who eats lunch alone in the cafeteria.
In this matchup, the Cubs are favored, and for good reason. They've got a potent offense, averaging 1.4 home runs per game, which ranks third in baseball. The Rockies, on the other hand, have a whopping 45 home runs, which ranks 27th in the majors. That's like comparing a Ferrari to a Vespa.
The pitching matchup features Matthew Boyd for the Cubs and Tanner Gordon for the Rockies. Boyd has been solid, while Gordon has been, well, not so much. The Cubs' lineup is loaded with talent, including Tucker, Crow-Armstrong, and Suzuki, while the Rockies' lineup is, um, still looking for its first big hit of the season.
So, what's the best bet here? Well, it's not exactly rocket science. Take the Cubs to win, and take them to cover the spread. The Rockies are just too bad, and the Cubs are too good. It's like betting on the sun to rise in the east.
Best bet: Chicago Cubs -1.5 (-1.69 at Caesars)
Don't @ me, Rockies fans. Your team is just really, really bad. Maybe try rebuilding with some new players, or a new manager, or a new everything. Just saying.
