Rec: 4-0
Well, this game tests my threshold for chalk, but deleloped habits are hard to change and I certainly have developed a habit of taking Silva this season, and it sure as hell isn't about to change against the Bucs. Talk all you want about the Cubbies loosing streak against the Buccos, but I seriously doubt Silva gives a wet rat's ass about that. The man just goes out to the mound and gets it done. All other stats I look at are fairly even over the past 10 games for each team, e.g. BP, hitting % against righties/lefties, etc. so I'm gonna go with the hot hand in this one, as I've done for all of his starts.
