0.83u

Protecting him closer to 2.3 earned runs. Hate the odds so playing at half a unit, but think this matchup works in his favor. Cubs have been hot and they have 7 lefties, but Happ and Turner have generally hit righties better. Last year Cubs were a bottom-10 offense against lefties for power and league-average in wRC+. Adding Kyle Tucker does help but still like this matchup overall for Springs.
