The Cincinnati Reds will be taking on the Chicago Cubs in the first game of their three-game set. The guardians will be looking for their second win in a row by sending Justin Dunn to the mound. He is 1-2 this season with a 4.63 ERA. The Cubs will send Wade Miley to the between teams whose seasons have been over for a while. Miley is 1-0, 2.84 ERA. Chicago is 6-4 in its last 10 games against Cincinnati. The Reds have won three of their last five games. In his last start, Dunn gave up three hits and one run in four innings in a win over the Cardinals. The Cubs come into this game having lost three in a row. In his last start, Miley gave three hits and no runs in three innings. The Reds have struggled on the road where they have lost five of their last seven games. Miley has given up six runs in his last four starts. He has given up six runs in his last five starts against the Red. Dunn has given up 12 runs in his last five starts. He gave up five runs in his last start against the Cubs. The Reds have averaged 5.9 runs in the 10 games they have played this season. The Cubs have lost seven of the last eight games overall and have won two out of their last six at home. This is Wade Miley’s first start since June so I look for the Cubs to go to the pen early. Take the nice + money on the reds.

Play on Cincinnati.
