00:00No picture listed as of this moment for L.A. on FanDuel and thus an even money.
00:05Pick them on that money line.
00:07Minus 108 on both sides.
00:09TRS, what is your card showing?
00:10Has Dave Roberts named a starter just yet for the Dodgers?
00:14It looks like it says it's Davis here.
00:16So I'm just trying to take a look at some of the updated things,
00:18see if I have his numbers.
00:19Okay, I have his numbers.
00:20So let's just take a look.
00:21And you're correct.
00:23What a second.
00:23The Dodgers minus 108.
00:25Boyd's on the mound here.
00:26Boyd actually does have some interesting statistics where it's like,
00:29okay, he has an X-fip that's a little bit higher, but an ERA lower.
00:32So getting a little bit more lucky.
00:3472 degree temperatures here at first pitch at 7 o'clock tonight
00:37with a light wind blowing out to left field.
00:39So you'd figure you'd get offense.
00:41Now, Noah Davis last year, 98 batters he's faced.
00:44A 170 ISO, which is slightly elevated,
00:46but a 399 weighted on base percentage, which is really elevated.
00:49A guy last year that didn't walk too many people,
00:51but also, more importantly, Ben, didn't strike out a lot of batters.
00:55You look at an offense today that presents itself against right-handed pitching,
00:59elevated weighted on base percentage and ISO power numbers from Tucker,
01:02Suzuki, and Bush.
01:03Also, Pete Crowe, Armstrong, and Carson Kelly.
01:06You might think that we might be able to get some damage in.
01:08Let's flip it over to Matthew Boyd, the left-handed pitcher here for the Cubs.
01:11Last year, limited innings here, or should I say limited batters, 213.
01:15Had pretty good numbers.
01:16This year, decent numbers again, but the K rates are a little bit lower,
01:19which is why we have that ERA not showing up as high as that X-fip number is.
01:23You look at the lineup today, doesn't hit left-handed pitching all that great.
01:26Like, Otani's a plus, Betts is a plus, Tassica Hernandez on fire, Will Smith.
01:31But you look at Max Muncy, Enrique Hernandez, and also Andy Pahez, all low numbers.
01:35But if I'm looking, it's optimistically saying,
01:37I don't know if we're getting two good pitching performances.
01:40Fresh off of what we saw last night with 21 runs,
01:42why aren't we getting more runs today again at night?
01:45Because it's not even a quick turnaround.
01:46Like, yo, they played at night last night to getaway day.
01:48They're playing at 1 o'clock.
01:49Maybe you don't have the great roster in there.
01:51No, no, no, no, no.
01:52You get the full 24 hours off and a nice night at Wrigley.
01:55Why can't we get a total in this game?
