Prediction

Two first place teams battle this weekend beginning tonight in Houston. The Cubs are coming off two shutout wins over the Cardinals after dropping three straight and allowing at least seven runs in each of their previous six games before the shutouts. The Astros pitching has been even better this week, limiting the first place Phillies to one run in three games. Houston has now won four in a row and have the second-best home record in the Majors. Also, the home team has won each of the last six matchups between these teams. I like Houston to take the opener.

Pick: Astros -105
