Recreation 2 prediction
Each bullpens are in glorious form. The Brewers are utilizing an opener earlier than possible going to Quinn Priester whereas the Cubs will possible have Shota Imanaga on a really quick leash. Anticipate an in depth one this time that goes right down to the ultimate out. I am going to say the Cubs get the job finished with a well timed residence run or two. — Matt Snyder
