This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Chicago Cubs.
We think this is a much bigger mismatch on the mound than what Las Vegas is leading us to believe:
Jon Lester: He's 4-4 with a 3.83 ERA and 1.29 WHIP. Most recently he gave up two runs off five hits while stirking out seven over six innings in a no-decision on Monday. Lester has so far struggled on the road, but his track record would suggest that he'll be able to start tightening up his peripherals as the season wares on.
Justin Nicolino: He's 0-1 with a 5.06 ERA and 1.69 WHIP. Nicolino returned from injury to get rocked for six runs off six hits over three innings in a fortunate no-decision against the Nationals on Monday.
The bottom line: The Cubs are 11-6 (+3.5 units) against southpaws this year, while Miami is just 6-7 (-1 unit) against lefties. After yesterday's 2-0 defeat, we look for the CUBS to respond on Saturday night.
