Tight races.

With a couple of weeks left in the regular season, the Cubs and Diamondbacks need to finish strong to make the playoffs as wild-cards.

Are you experienced?

Chicago’s veteran Kyle Hendricks purple-hazed the Snakes at Wrigley and picked up the win after allowing two runs over 5 ²/₃ innings only six days ago.

Arizona’s Zach Davies has made 16 starts this season and has won twice.

Last two outings did not go Davies’ way as he was attacked for eight runs over seven innings, allowing 10 hits while issuing six walks.

Still believe the Cubs will sneak into the postseason.

Not as confident about ’Zona.

Play $50 on the Cubbies.

So the Astros are light years better than the Royals, so we bet on Houston.

And, of course, the Royals won 4-1.

Nelson Velazquez, Bobby Witt and Micahel Massey homered.

Bit on the low hanging fruit and choked. Down -1,008 clementes.
