Take Chicago Cubs -120 vs Cincinnati Reds
(MLB) Cincinnati vs. Chi Cubs,
Money Line: -120.00 Chi Cubs (Home)
Result: Loss
The Reds have taken back first place in the NL Central, after the Brewers have lost three straight games. The Cubs lost to the Cardinals Sunday but they had been on fire prior to that and they were likely looking ahead to this game. The Cubs are 3.5 games out of the final Wild Card spot in the National League. They decided to not trade Stroman after their recent success, and we think he shows up here as he is great at home with a 0.98 WHIP and he will be up to face the Reds here. Andrew Abbott ranks in the mid to lower percentile when it comes to Average Exit Velocity, Hard Hit %, Barrel %, BB%, Whiff %, Fastball Velocity, and Fastball Spin. He has a 3.96 xERA, 3.75 FIP, 4.30 xFIP, and 4.05 SIERA. Let's roll with the Cubs.
