With the salaries the way they are in baseball, you can generally count on a certain percentage of the teams in the MLB being in some stage of the rebuilding process. For some, that process is going to take longer than others, especially with so much riding on the performance of the prospects picked up during the salary dumping years. When those prospects deliver, the fortunes of a team can change in the blink of an eye. Such was the case with the Chicago Cubs last season, as they went from nowhere to a contender over the course of a couple of months. They made some tweaks in the offseason to strengthen the squad even further, and they now look like the team to beat in the NL. The Cincinnati Reds are a little further behind in the rebuilding process, but they are off to an encouraging start to this season. These two will hook up in the final leg of a 3-game series in Chicago on Thursday night. Keep up to date with all the Major League Basbeball odds on this one at MyBookie.ag.
