After simulating every game on Wednesday 10,000 times, the model is high on the Reds (+115) to beat the Cubs at 8:05 p.m. ET (see tickets at StubHub). Cincinnati (26-47) has won three of its last four and sits in fifth in the NL Central. Chicago (28-46) has lost two of its last three and is just 1.5 games ahead of the Reds in the division.
The Cubs pitching has struggled mightily this month as in June, Chicago has an ERA of 6.04. That’s the worst in the majors over that time and almost one run worse than the next-worst team, Detroit (5.20). The poor pitching has contributed to the Cubs’ 8-17 record this month, the third-worst in the majors.
