Cubs +112 at Orioles: Baltimore's losing ways make this dog too good to pass up

The God of Odds likes the Chicago Cubs on the moneyline at +112, and BetUS is the place to hammer it.

Let's keep this simple. The Cubs are 52-40 this season with a 25-21 record on the road. They're scoring 5.1 runs per game while allowing 4.5. Meanwhile, the Orioles are 42-51 and just 24-25 at home. Baltimore has lost four of their last five games, and their recent form is a mess: L-L-L-L-W-W-W-L-L-L. That's six losses in their last ten.

Now look at the moneyline records. Chicago sits at 1435-719, which tells you they win outright more often than not. Baltimore? 1395-1573. That's a losing record over a huge sample. The Orioles are also dealing with injuries: shortstop Luis Vazquez and pitcher Keagan Gillies are both out or doubtful. The Cubs only have one bullpen arm sidelined in Brandon Birdsell. That's a clear edge for Chicago.

The line hasn't moved much, but that's fine. We're getting plus money on a team that's simply better. The Cubs have gone 8-2 in their last ten games. They're hot. Baltimore is not. Fading the favorite here is the sharp play.

For the best price, head to BetUS. They're offering the Cubs at +112, which is the highest you'll find. Bovada and MyBookie are at +106. That six cents of difference matters. Lock in the Cubs on the moneyline and let the better team cash your ticket.
