Today we look at two teams around the .500 mark and focus on the pitching matchup. Johnny Cueto is coming off the DL (elbow) to make his first start since April 28. He started great this season, with five straight quality starts, allowing just three runs and 16 hits through 32 innings, with 26 strikeouts against just six walks. San Francisco is 4-1 with him on the mound with the Unders going 3-2. Will he pick up where he left off?

Tonight the ChiSox and Reds meet in the rubber game of a 3 game series at the bandbox called Great American Ballpark. There are three very tasty variables in play tonight. Let’s touch on those and investigate a few others as well. The first is that we have two gas cans on the hill. White Sox starter Dylan Covey started off like gangbusters this year, which was baffling to say the least, as he has always been the worst pitcher in baseball when he’s on the active roster.
