Chicago Cubs at Cincinnati 1:00 ET
Cubs over Reds- As it has been said 'You have to break a few eggs to make an omelet'... what that has to do with taking the Cubs here makes about as much sense. We have taken advantage of Chicago on the road and in their last pair of losses at Cincinnati. This afternoon The 'Baby Bears' will start the struggling Jon Lester (9-8 4.39 ERA) who been racked in his last two start surrendering 16 runs in nine innings. The Cubs still own the worst NL road record 22-35 and will face Luis Castillo (11-4, 2.63) who is 4-2 with a 3.49 ERA in nine starts against the Cubs. Lester is 7-2 in 17 career starts against Cincinnati and gets another win today. Scramble dem eggs...take CHICAGO!
