CUBS (DEMPSTER +102) Cincinnati (Cueto)
Oh if we only had a nickel for every time it’s happened. Actually in fact we have. Johnny Cueto was a highly touted young stud. After coming out of the gates with a few strong outings, a bunch of saps were ready to make his bust in Cooperstown .
Not so fast. Here’s the part we’ve seen many times before: reality hits, but we make a fortune fading the media and oddsmakers. Cueto has been ripped for 12 runs, 11 earned in his last 8 2/3 IP giving up 19 baserunners.
All underrated veteran Ryan Dempster has done is go 4-0 personally with a 5-1 team record. His WHIP is 1.108 with a 3.16 ERA. On the road it’s an even more impressive 1.29 ERA and .714 WHIP.
Cincinnati has lost to Dempster six of the previous seven times they faced him. Dempster has a +6.8 units won in those seven starts. The Reds have lost five straight.
Chicago has won 4-of-5 in the Queen City .
