Analysis

CHICAGO CUBS ML vs PITTSBURGH

The Pirates are bringing back Jared Jones to pitch in this one. Jones has spent the last 2 months on the IL and struggled in his return from there against this Cubs team having allowed 2 HR's and 5 Earned Runs. This Cubs lineup is hitting everything right now. They rank 3rd over the last month in wRC+ and they show no signs of slowing down. Pittsburgh knows the season is over and are just 15-25 in the 2H of this season. The worst in the NL. Bullpen is toast and the bats are non existent. Taillon got an extra days rest when he was pushed back from pitching yesterday, opting instead for him to throw at home in this one against his former team. Another if it ain't broke, don't fix it game.
