The Chicago Cubs and their supporters would’ve rolled off just like water on a duck’s back, before their 100 + year old curse broke a few seasons past. The 2016 World Series name changed all of that following Tuesday’s disadvantage to the Cincinnati Reds dropped the Cubs with the Brewers for the next NL Wild Card.
Cincinnati’s win helped the Reds since the clubs head into the season series name with Chicago to the rubber match of the collection on Wednesday, also last assembly of 2019. Tyler Mahle (2-11, 5.11) is up for Cincinnati, while Jon Lester (13-10, 4.59) climbs the bump for the Cubbies who are chalked around -175 on the MLB Odds board.
Chicago never uttered in Monday’s series opener,” Kyle Schwarber’s 3-run burst in the first major the Cubs to an 8-2 win. Schwarber was back in it Tuesday night with a double and triple among his three hits, but it was not enough as the Reds built a fast guide to a 4-2 triumph in a game. This set’s final in Game two stopped a string of’overs’ for Chicago.
Even a demotion to the minors in July does not seem to have helped Mahle much, the righthander pitching to a 6.43 ERA and allowing 4 HR in 14 IP in three starts this month since being recalled. He confronted the Cubs in May at Wrigley, while surrendering 3 HR Mahle’s only beginning against them in 2019, and had been roughed up.
Lester picked up his third win in four missions last Friday from the Pirates, although it had to do than his arm with Chicago’s bats. The 35-year-old was charged with seven runs (4 earned) in five innings, making him with an 8.43 ERA in his final four home begins. Both of his starts this season against the Reds came in Cincinnati, the Cubs dividing those excursions. Eugenio Suarez has enjoyed facing Lester, moving five occasions and batting .359 at 39 career .
Following five of his final seven plate missions hurdled the extremities, the show wraps up with Tony Randazzo at the dish, the veteran umpire 10-8 O/U at 2019. It is the first time since Game 5 in the dish in Wrigley of the 2016 World Series of the Chicago native. 1 note to make will be house favorites around -180 are just 1-3 this year with Randazzo calling balls and strikes.
It should be a great day on Chicago’s North Side with temps in the 70s under clear skies, and just a light SE breeze (right to left). My complimentary MLB pick is going to be on Chicago pay for a run lineup and to bounce back in a huge way.
