A’s vs. Cubs Prediction, Odds, Probable Pitchers, Prop Bets for Wednesday, June 3

The A’s and Chicago Cubs are both looking to get out of recent funks as they meet up for the second game of a three-game set.

The A’s took the series opener for their second win in three games after a four-game skid, while the Cubs have now lost three of their last four contests.

Neither team has been scoring much recently as evidenced by the 2-1 final score last night.

Here are the odds, probable pitchers, and predictions for A's vs. Cubs on Wednesday, June 3.

A's vs. Cubs Best MLB Prop Bets

A's Best MLB Prop Bet

Zack Gelof OVER 1.5 Hits + Runs + RBIs (+121)

Zack Gelof is riding a modest seven-game hitting streak, going 11 for 28 (.393) in that span. He bats lower in the A’s order, so that explains this pricing, but he has gone OVER 1.5 HRR in most of his recent games.

In fact, Gelof has gone OVER 1.5 HRR in six straight and 12 of his last 19 contests dating back to May 13. He’s also 2 for 3 against Rea in his career.

A's vs. Cubs Prediction and Pick

I’m going to fade both offenses tonight.

The Cubs have scored one run or fewer in 9 of its last 10 games, and three or fewer in 10 of its last 16.

The A's had a few high-scoring games at home, but otherwise have been quiet. They’ve scored two runs or fewer in six of their last nine games.

Pick: UNDER 8.5 (-101)
