Two National League Central rivals will be looking to move up the divisional standings when the Pittsburgh Pirates host the Chicago Cubs for the start of a three-game series on Monday night.
The Pirates were once the darlings of Major League Baseball, but they've lost six straight to fall to 34-36. The Cubs (33-38) struggled through the first two months of the season, but they've won seven of nine to climb back within four games of the division-leading Milwaukee Brewers.

Two National League Central rivals will be looking to move up the divisional standings when the Pittsburgh Pirates host the Chicago Cubs for the start of a three-game series on Monday night.
The Pirates were once the darlings of Major League Baseball, but they've lost six straight to fall to 34-36. The Cubs (33-38) struggled through the first two months of the season, but they've won seven of nine to climb back within four games of the division-leading Milwaukee Brewers.
Pittsburgh is turning to unproven starter Osvaldo Bido on Monday, which could provide some opportunities for Chicago batters to tee off. We’ll talk about who can take advantage of this matchup in our free MLB picks and predictions for Cubs vs. Pirates on June 19.
Cubs vs Pirates odds Cubs vs Pirates predictions Christopher Morel has come into his own for the Chicago Cubs during his second season in the majors. The 23-year-old showed some promise as a rookie, putting up a solid .741 OPS and flashing some power with 16 home runs across 425 plate appearances. But he didn’t excel while failing to get noticed in the NL Rookie of the Year race. Now Morel has been turning into a dangerous power hitter in 2023 who has also improved at putting the ball into play. Morel came to the majors in early May after opening the season with Triple-A Iowa, and he's been raking ever since. The slugger has put up 13 home runs over just 120 plate appearances while hitting .291 with a 1.042 OPS. Morel has been helping to power Chicago’s recent run of good play as well. He's hit four homers in his last eight games while playing all over the field, primarily as an outfielder or designated hitter. The Cubs may have found a future middle-of-the-order hitter they can also comfortably deploy in both the infield and the outfield, even if he’s not considered a plus defender.
Now Morel will get the chance to hit against fellow Dominican Osvaldo Bido. The 27-year-old righty made his debut in the big leagues on June 14 against the Cubs in Chicago after spending six years working through the  Pittsburgh Pirates ’ minor-league system . Bido threw four fairly effective innings, giving up just one run on four hits while striking out six and walking three. Morel received only two looks at Bido in that game, going 0-for-2. However, we can expect Morel — along with the rest of Chicago's lineup — to fare better the second time around after being able to watch tape on Bido.
The utility player has also been crushing right-handers. He’s hitting .306 with a 1.072 OPS against righties in 2023, and Morel has hit 10 home runs over just 93 plate appearances versus righties.
Add it all up, and Morel is positioned perfectly to produce against Bido. There’s never a guarantee of a player going deep, but he should get plenty of opportunities to hit a dinger on Monday night, and there are juicy long odds available. My best bet: Christopher Morel to hit a home run (+575 at bet365) Cubs vs Pirates same-game parlay Christopher Morel to hit a home run Cubs moneyline Cubs Over 6.5 runs We can structure an entire parlay around Morel hitting a home run to get a lot of extra value. That starts with keeping his home run prop on the same-game parlay.
If Morel goes deep, there’s a good chance he’ll do so as part of a Cubs win. Chicago is a -135 road favorite in the game, and the...
