Chicago Cubs over Arizona Diamondbacks: Chic has now won 5 in a row and their bats have really started to heat up. Samardzija has really turned into an elite pitcher. His 196 BAA ranks near the tops in the majors. He has been able to control his wicked split finger lowering his walk total while maintaining his strikeouts. Keeping this line lower than it should be is his 4-7 team record when he starts. However that is more a factor of lack of run support than pitching.

Kennedy is a fly ball pitcher and with the wind blowing straight out to center today that is a bad combination for Ariz. Kennedy missed his last start with a sore finger and that could affect his curve ball.
