Kyle Murray's Brewers vs Cubs Best Bet: Fade Taillon
By Kyle Murray
Jameson Taillon's start got pushed back due to the rain, but I am going right back to his under here. This projects as a brutal strikeout matchup for Taillon, who has struck out just 16.3% of righties this season, and while the Brewers projected lineup has just four lefties, two of those lefties have strikeout rates below 18% against right-handed pitchers since the start of last season.
