Schule's MLB AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER - **EARLY START**
(MLB) Angels (LAA) vs. Cubs (CHC),
Point Spread: -1.50 | 102.00 Cubs (CHC) (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 4* play on CHC.

The Cubs sit dead last in the weakest division in the major leagues, and they have lost eight of their last 11 overall. Still they are a big favorite at home this afternoon versus the LA Angels. The Halos have dropped four straight, and just got swept by one of the worst teams in baseball (Oakland).

Justin Steele will toe the slab for the Cubs, and he's pitched well over his last five starts posting an ERA of 2.18.

The Halos hand the ball to Griffin Canning, who is 1-3 with a 4.75 ERA in his last five starts, and he's 0-6 with a 5.21 ERA in seven road starts.

As bad as the Cubs bullpen is, the Angels relievers have been worse. LA ranks 28th in the major leagues with a team ERA of 4.73 (by relief pitcher).
