After picking up the win in the series opener 4-1, the Cubs will give the ball to Shota Imanaga, who has pitched well for the Cubs this season. Imanaga is 6-3 with a 2.64 ERA. The Red Sox were able to turn their slump around after the Devers trade and rattled off 10 straight wins heading into All-Star Weekend. However, that streak came against weaker opponents vs WSH, COL, and TB. They have won just 3 of their last 9 road games, so this will be a test on the road in Wrigley. Bello has been much better of late, but that has been against weaker lineups and at home. Today, the 3rd-ranked lineup in wRC+ and wOBA vs RHP this season, and ranked 1st over the last month, will face the 3rd-ranked lineup in wRC+ and wOBA vs RHP this season, which is also ranked 1st.
