00:00Great American small park. Might we see an under there? 9 and a

00:07half the total in Cincinnati. It's the Cubs in the Reds in a

00:11virtual pick them. Again, Chicago, a fascinating team as

00:14of this moment, DRS. It's the bottom two teams in the NL

00:18Central. Fifty-one and fifty-six for the Cubs. Fifty and fifty-

00:21five for Cincinnati. Both ten games back of the top spot.

00:25That is Milwaukee but the Cubbies made some moves this

00:28weekend. Yesterday in the trade. What exactly does

00:34Chicago do this week ahead of the deadline? And I'll tell you

00:39right now, you take a look at the pictures on this card. Last

00:4160 days, minimum of twenty innings pitch. There's twenty-

00:44three total pitchers. There's eleven and twelve. That's

00:46Spires and Tyone. A ninety-six XFIT minus and a ninety-seven

00:50XFIT minus. Now, Spires does have a slightly higher ERA over

00:53the past sixty days and if we're taking a look at some of

00:55those non-analytical numbers, Spires on the mound, a

00:58power number to his last sixty-eight batters. Two

01:00seventy-seven. Weighted on base percentage. Three fifty-nine.

01:03That's not very good. Flip it over on the other side here to

01:06the Chicago Cubs. Starting pitcher Jamison Tyone. That

01:09power number of the past 30 days, Ben. A one ten. A

01:12weighted on base percentage. A two forty-seven. Now, looking

01:15at the lineups and how they go toe to toe. Obviously, the Reds

01:18have a better hitting lineup as it appears. Then, you take a

01:21look at the Chicago Cubs but if I'm doing one thing in this

01:23game, it's probably gonna be Ian Hap to report an RBI. He's

01:27been very good against right-handed pitching over the

01:29past 30 days. Hobat is a lefty which again, lefties have done

01:32primarily the damage against Spires. So, for anything in

01:35this game that I really like, it's probably Hap to record an

01:38RBI for the Chicago Cubs.
