Chicago Cubs (-125) – Mon September 1st ’08 4:05p

The Houston Astros are coming off of an outstanding September and Roy Oswalt is starting to look like his old self, but this still seems like a rather cheap price for the Chicago Cubs at homel After all, the Cubs are an amazing 51-21 at Wrigley Field this season, and after losing the last two games to the Phillies here, they will be anxious to reestablish their home dominance. Jason Marquis may be a disappointment overall this year, but he has been much better lately with a 3.06 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in his last three starts. As great as Oswalt has been in his career, he has never pitched particularly well in Wrigley. He was torched for six runs on 10 hits in 6.2 innings here earlier this season, marking his third straight start in this friendly old stadium that he failed to record a Quality Starts, allowing 17 earned runs in just 17 innings over those three outings. Look for the Astros recent success to stall in this series opener. MLB Free Pick: Cubs -125 – Courtesy of LT Profits
