We have two hot offenses, and two bullpens that have not been great recently, but Chicago has a huge starting pitching edge.
Marcus Stroman (10-6, 2.88 ERA.1.09 WHIP) and averaging six innings pitched per outing going for Cubs against Steven Matz (0-7, 4.86 ERA, 1.51 WHIP) averaging 3.2 innings per outing.
The Cubs have won four of their last five Wrigley Field games started by Stroman, and Stroman has only allowed one home run over his last nine starts.
Cardinals are 1-4 in Matz's road starts this season.
