70 degrees w/ a 15 mph wind out to left and I hope I'm not revealing too much proprietary information here, but a certain app is telling me these conditions have produced an under at Wrigley 60% of the time by an average of a run - Senga looked great before stumbling last time out, Cabrera's walk issues seem to be back, but still has an xERA < 4 - NYM 77/76/36 wRC+ Rd/v RHP/L7 days - CHC proj def +41 FRV LY - NYM pen still upper half of league FIP/xFIP/SIERA avg despite recent blowups.

NYM +120
