Chicago Cubs
The Cubs have not been able to figure out Sonny Gray yet on Wednesday night but they have had a strong start to the season with four wins in their first five games.
The strong start is in spite of Kris Bryant’s lack of production in the leadoff spot. Just about everybody else in Chicago’s lineup is hitting, however.
Anthony Rizzo already has three home runs. Both Ian Happ and Javier Baez have two each.
Darvish, set to start this game, has the only loss among the Cubs’ starters (Kyle Hendricks may get one Wednesday).
He only lasted four innings in his first start and gave up six hits and three runs.
He did strike out five without issuing a walk, however. Those numbers give me reason to believe he will continue to improve in the early part of the restart.
Cincinnati Reds
After winning its first game of the season, Cincinnati dropped the last two against Detroit and then the first two to Chicago in this series.
If the Reds can hold onto an early lead Wednesday, they will at least avoid the sweep going into the finale.
Luis Castillo struck out eleven Tigers and walked just one in six innings but got a no-decision.
Unlike some, pitchers and batters alike, Castillo does not appear to need any adjustment period here at the start of the 60-game sprint. Feel good betting on him.

Free Chicago Cubs vs. Cincinnati Reds MLB Prediction: it stays under.
I’m on board with Castillo and at the same time looking for a step in the right direction from Darvish with his first start out of the way.
Both starters should be good at the least and the bullpens hang on for us to keep it out of double-digits.
