MLB is back with an all-day Wednesday slate, starting with Cubs vs. Pirates at 12:35 p.m. ET (MLB Network).

Chicago currently leads the NL wild card race, four games clear of San Diego and a full nine games ahead of New York, which currently occupies the final playoff position.

Pittsburgh, on the other hand, has already been eliminated from playoff contention and has been relegated to the role of spoiler for the rest of the season.

Live Cubs vs. Pirates odds show Chicago as a -156 favorite and an over/under of 8 for today's game.

However, we're bypassing standard game odds and, thanks to Action PRO's MLB Projections, are zeroing in on a plus-money prop with value for Cubs vs. Pirates.

Cubs vs. Pirates Odds, +121 Prop Pick

*Odds as of Wednesday morning

The focus of today's bet is Reese McGuire's hits over/under.

Chicago's catcher is currently priced at 0.5 hits with heavy -162 juice toward the over.
