Follow @PicksOffice on X. Rea just gave up 10 hits, 3 HRs, and 6 ER in his last start. Irvin had 0 strikeouts in his last outing—lowest miss rate in MLB. Two starters who can’t miss bats. Cubs lead MLB in 1st-pitch batting avg (.411), jump on guys early. Nats park plays hot in June evenings. Washington's last 7 games: 6 overs. Cubs? 11 runs vs CIN, .828 OPS on the road (1st in MLB). Rea = 10 hard-hit balls last time out, only 5 whiffs on 90 pitches. Irvin not fooling anyone. Both pens shaky: WAS 5.87 ERA, CHC showing fatigue (4.50 last 3 games). No margin. Nats 2nd-lowest K rate vs RHP = tough matchup for Rea. Cubs 7-1 last 8, offense buzzing. Recent H2Hs trending over. Perfect setup.
