Chicago Cubs at Cincinnati: Chicago Cubs-112....
Chicago Cubs and have won three of their last five games, and will send Cole Hamels to the mound for game one of the series, who is 6-2 on the season with a 2.92 ERA. Despite the Reds’ dominance against the Cubs at home, Hamels has pitched superb this season and is 3-0 in his last three starts against the Reds,
Going for the Reds will be Sonny Gray whom has gone 3-5 with a 4.03 ERA in 15 starts on the year, including 1-0 with a 6.00 ERA in his last three starts and 2-2 with a 4.26 ERA in eight starts here at home.... Grey is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA in two career starts against the Cubs. Cincinnati is 6-1 in their last seven games when playing the Cubs at home.
Hames has been on fire of late with a 1.00 ERA over his last five starts and he has completely dominated the Reds over his career, going 11-1 with a 1.71 ERA against them, including 4-1 with a 2.12 ERA in seven career starts against them here at GAB.
I think Hamels will make the difference in this game because of the better arm which should make my Cubbies my pick for this game!
