Joe Wiz Pick of the Day: reeling Cubbies in need of some wins before All-Star break

Both the Philadelphia Phillies and Chicago Cubs have become also-rans in divisions that many thought were there to be won.

Chicago recently lost nine straight games to fall under .500, and 8.5 games back of the red-hot Brewers in the NL Central. The Phillies have never got going in 2021, and are also under .500 (41-43) in the NL East.

Tonight, with Zach Eflin vs Adbert Alzolay, I like the home team to get back to .500.
