Thank you, sirs—may we have 30 others?
Lester won in Pittsburgh on Thursday, giving up 1 ER in 6 innings. He beat the Mets in Queens in June, going 7 innings of one-run ball, in a game the Cubs won 14-3.
Overall, the Mets are 34-129 (.264) against him. Flores, who may or may not be on the DL with the rest of the team, is 5-12 with 3 HR.
Harvey had a win against the Reds his last time out (5 IP, 2 ER, 1 K, 1 BB). He gave up 4 ER in as many innings but ended up with a no-decision against the Cubs earlier in the season. He’s 2-3 with a 5.58 in his 8 road starts in 2017, so there's that.
For their careers, the Cubs are 11-41 (.268) against him. Jay is 3-10. Happ and Schwarber are both 1-2 with a HR.
Lugo and Montgomery end the series tomorrow at the same time.
Go Cubs!
