Braves:
Foltynewicz was 1-1 with a 3.00 ERA in three starts against the Phillies and is 3-2 with a 4.50 ERA in seven career outings.Pivetta had a 6.02 ERA to go with his 8-10 record. Only six pitchers with 100 or more innings had a higher ERA than Pivetta.

Cubs:
Cubs will start right-hander Kyle Hendricks, who went 7-5 with a 3.03 ERA in 24 starts last year. Hendricks, 28, has a 2.94 ERA over four major league seasons, going 16-8 with a 2.13 ERA in 2016.
In his final 16 starts last year, he allowed one or fewer runs in eight of them. That includes a playoff start in which he blanked the Washington Nationals for seven innings on just two hits.
The Marlins will counter Hendricks with rookie left-hander Caleb Smith, who will make his Marlins debut after being acquired from the New York Yankees on Nov. 20.
Smith, 26, is filling in for established starter Dan Straily, who is on the disabled list.
A 16th-round pick out of Sam Houston State in 2013, Smith has nine games of big-league experience, all of them in 2017. That includes two starts and a 7.71 ERA

I know it was meaningless time but PHI won 6 of Pivettas last 7 starts.

Also Phillies were 3rd most profitable bet behind COL and LAD last year vs lefties

Wacha has a 2.85 ERA to go along with that 8-1 record in 16 career appearances, including 14 starts, against the Reds
Cardinals' slow start is their .235 team batting average -- and their .209 average with runners in scoring position during the homestand. They have also struck out 114 times in 12 games, an average of nearly 10 per game. Look for their bats to break out

Twins game -$185 $640/$400
Berrios has faced the White Sox four times in his career, going 3-1 with a 2.13 ERA, striking out 31 with eight walks in 25 1/3 innings. He held the White Sox scoreless the last time he faced them, tying his career high with 11 strikeouts over seven innings on Aug. 30 of last season.
