The Chicago Cubs have dominated the Milwaukee Brewers as of recent, especially when Zach Davies is on the mound as they have won 5 of their last 7 games. The Chicago Cubs have been very good at home this season as they bring a 36-18 record into this game, and they need to use that to their advantage as they are only 1 game up on the Brewers in the NL Central race. The Chicago Cubs are a talented team as Jose Baez, Anthony Rizzo, and Kris Bryant are one of the best trios in baseball, and while the Brewers have arguably the best player in baseball the bats tend to struggle a ton. Final Score Prediction, Chicago Cubs win 6-4.
