The Cubs enter the contest with a record of 29-17, which places Craig Counsell's squad first in the NL Central, leading the Milwaukee Brewers and St Louis Cardinals by 1.5 games.
Second baseman Nico Hoerner has led the team with 48 hits and 29 runs batted in. Veteran Collin Rea will toe the rubber for the Cubs. Rea is 4-2 with an ERA of 4.68.

Chicago has been one of the best stories in baseball early in the season, trailing the first-place Cleveland Guardians by one game.
26-year-old Munetaka Murakami has led the team with 17 home runs and 32 runs batted in.

Leg 1: Cubs Moneyline
I expect the Cubs to bounce back from a lackluster performance yesterday.
Fedde has struggled against this Cubs lineup, and I expect that to be the story again today.
The Cubs are batting .309 against Fedde in 97 team at-bats.
The Cubbies' offense should give Rea and company enough run support to earn the win today.
Leg 2: Erick Fedde Under 3.5 Strikeouts
We will team up with our Action Pro Report for this prop.
I expect a short outing from Fedde, which will bode well for this prop.
Fedde has stayed under this number in three of his last four games.
Our Action Pro Report projects 2.8 strikeouts today.
