The Dodgers are playing only at the five hundred mark on the road this year and the offense is relying heavily on Bellinger. Not to mention Stripling seems to have control issues at times this season and while he has thrown more innings than Lester, he has started more games. Look for Lester to be able to come into the game here and control the game with a shut down pitching mentality. Final Score, Chicago Cubs win 5-2.
