Premium Pick

The Cubs head to Cincinnati for a four-game series vs. the Reds, sending Jon Lester to the mound in the opener. He will square off against Wade Miley who was 14-6 a year ago. The Reds got the best of the Cubs last year as they went 11-8 against them. Jon Lester struggled on the road a year ago where he had a 4.69 ERA. The Reds are getting better and added eight wins to the win total in 2019 and dominated the Cubs at home a year ago taking six of the nine played here. Lester is showing signs of decline, having failed to record a win vs. the Reds in three starts a year ago. Make the play on Cincinnati.
