Chicago Cubs vs Pittsburgh Pirates Predictions 9/24/2022

Pittsburgh lost their eighth consecutive game after falling just short of the Cubs at home in the first game of this series.

Chicago Cubs vs Pittsburgh Pirates. The MLB pick for this game is the Chicago Cubs. In the last stretch of the season, neither team has anything more on the line than pride.

The Cubs’ farm system contains several strong players that they may use as a foundation for 2023 and beyond. Even though Miley suffered from several ailments this season, he was anticipated to be a solid seasoned member in the middle of the rotation when he was acquired off waivers from Cincinnati.

Pittsburgh is still in a chaotic situation, which was all too typical during the Bob Nutting administration. Oviedo performed better for Pittsburgh than he did for St. Louis, but the Pirates’ dearth of offensive firepower hurts them.

As Pittsburgh slowly approaches a triple-digit loss total, take the Cubs. The Chicago Cubs will win to a predicted score of 5-2.
