AROUND THE HORN TRIPLE PLAY
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. Arizona, 04/16/2024 9:40 PM, Score: 11 - 12
Money Line: -121.00 Arizona (Home)
Result: Win
The Chicago Cubs take on the Arizona Diamondbacks in the second game of a three game set. The Cubs took the opener 3-2. The Chicago Cubs are in fourth place in the NL Central, but are only 1.5 games back of first. They will be without Seiya Suzuki, who was just sent to the 10-day IL. Kyle Hendricks gets the start for the Cubs. It will be his fourth start of the season but has struggled so far. He has posted a 12.08 ERA, and has given up at least five earned runs in each start. The Diamondbacks have won four of their last five and are second in the NL West. Tommy Henry will be making his fourth start. He is 0-1 with a 5.79 ERA. He has given up at least two earned runs in each of his starts this season. Kyle Hendricks has not made it more than five innings this season and has given up at least eight hits in each game. Arizona is tied for 10th in the majors in home runs, and are 6th in runs scored. This could be a make or break start for Hendricks. I don’t trust Hendricks to get the job done against the Arizona offense.

Play on Arizona. This is a 3% play.
