Adrian Sampson is on the bump for the Cubs tonight, looking to continue what has been a somewhat shockingly impressive slate of performances against upper-tier competition:
Tonight, he’ll be starting against Jordan Lyles, who’s coming off four really nice starts in a row (combined): 25.2 IP, 2.81 ERA. At least, in terms of results. The peripherals show a lot of hard contact and a lot of fly balls. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple of balls leave the park in this one.
Go Cubs.
