In this Giants vs Cubs Prediction, the Cubs are coming as -120 home favorites. I’m with the Cubs in this one. They bounced back yesterday and I trust Taillon more, as he has been better at home and McDonald has given up 12 runs across his last three starts. The Cubs have both a better offense and a better bullpen and I expect them to take care of business at home in this one.
