The Cubs and Rockies wrap up their 3-game series with an afternoon tilt at Wrigley Field on Thursday. The Cubs are in a dogfight for the NL Central division lead while Colorado needs every win they can get to try and close the gap on the Dodgers.
Colorado Rockies
The Rockies need to see if their recent 8 game winning streak was a product of good baseball – or just playing at home. In Colorado’s first road tilt in roughly two weeks, they dropped a 3-6 decision at Wrigley on Tuesday night.
Overall Colorado has hit just .217 collectively vs. Cubs starter Jose Quintana. There are a few batters who have had success vs. the lefty though such as Trevor Story (3-5, 2B, 3B) and Ian Desmond (2-4, 2BB).

Jon Gray getting the start is what makes Colorado a risky play on Thursday. The right-hander has developed a ‘hot spot’ on a finger on his pitching hand but still persevered through 6.2 IP of scoreless baseball vs. Toronto last time out – and at Coors Field nonetheless.
Chicago Cubs
Chicago has bounced back from a tough 1-5 road swing to get their offense going at Wrigley. The Cubs won 8-1 vs. the Angels back in Chicago on Monday and used HR’s from Javy Baez and Kyle Schwarber to defeat Colorado 6-3 in the series opener on Tuesday.
Baez and Anthony Rizzo both have a long ball off of Gray in just a combined 9 AB. Schwarber and Albert Amora have also gone a combined 4-8 vs. Gray so there is the potential for some Chicago offense in this one.

Chicago counters with Jose Quintana in the start on Thursday. The left-hander has allowed 2ER or less in 2 of the last 3 starts but also had a 12 hit, 5ER allowed outing vs. Cincinnati mixed in there.

- Cubs are 16-7 last 23 home games

Free Colorado Rockies vs. Chicago Cubs MLB Prediction:
This is a tough one to call with two solid offenses squaring off against pitchers that are kind of facing some issues as of late. It will be a warm day at Wrigley and depending on how the wind is blowing, both of these teams can put up some runs.
