Next is Corey Seager who is leading this team in home runs (9) and runs batted in (27). Seager is also hitting .278 on the year. Yasiel Puig has picked up from the rough start he had, he is hitting .239 on the year with 5 home runs and 20 RBIs.

Maeda also struck out 3 batters and walked 2.

Free Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Chicago Cubs MLB Prediction:
This game will be a good one just like Tuesday when the Dodgers won with an Arrieta start. I’m taking the Cubs in this one, because why not? The Cubs are the best team in baseball with regardless who they have pitching.
Only way I’d go against them here is if Clayton Kershaw somehow found the bump before first pitch.
