Chicago is on a 3-5 run despite playing seven of those at Wrigley Field. The Cubs lost the opener of this road trip at Miami yesterday, 3-2, as a favorite. They're forced to bring up Caleb Kilian from Triple-A Iowa to start in this one. It will be his 2023 major league debut after having a 10.32 ERA last season with the Cubs losing all three of his starts by a combined 38-10. Kilian walked 12 batters with 11 hits allowed in 11+ innings. The Cubs are 93-98 against NL teams that average 3.5 or fewer runs. Miami has won eight of its last 10 at home. Starter Edward Cabrera has a 3.60 ERA at home this season and a 2.70 ERA versus the Cubs. Batters are hitting .229 off him after hitting .177 last year in 71+ innings. With Miami taking five of the last seven at home against Chicago, back home field. Play Miami.
