The Cubs do not usually fly below the radar but there is not a lot of talk about them right now even though they are winning as much as anyone.
For the Royals, they might be lucky to reach the eight wins the Cubs already have by the end of the month.
Chicago Cubs
Chicago is off to a great start and it is not because any one player is leading the way. It has been a true team effort which bodes well.
It has been good to see Ian Happ off to a good start. He is a guy they have been waiting on and is one of three Cubbies that already has three homers this season.
The starting pitching has gotten off to a good start too. In fact, Kyle Hendricks dominated on opening day and he has the worst ERA of the lot. Lots of reasons to like whoever they put out there.
Kansas City Royals
The Royals are in last place in the AL Central, right where they are supposed to be. There is not much hope for that changing this season, even though Whit Merrifield is a gem.
Kansas Cty has just one quality start all season. I know that stat is not what it used to be but it is somewhat indicative of the talent they have.
Usually the Royals are one of the top running teams in the league. That makes them exciting and gives them the ability to manufacture runs. They have not been doing that this season.

Free Chicago Cubs vs. Kansas City Royals MLB Prediction:
You have to take the Cubs in this one…or go over. I am more confident in the Cubbies winning. Some nights that Royals offense does not give you much.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Cubs RL -1.5
The run line is what we are going to need for this one to make any sense. Not a stretch and they are on the road so they will get 9 cracks.
