Jose Quintana is 10-7 with a 4.23 ERA this season and he is 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA in August. He threw six scoreless innings in his only start against the Phillies this season. Jason Vargas is 6-6 with a 4.09 ERA this season and he has given up six earned runs in 11.1 IP with the Phillies. These teams are about even in OPS against lefties but the acquisition of Nick Castellanos for the Cubs will help them more. The Cubs are 7-3 in their last 10 while the Phillies are 3-7 in their last 10. The Phillies are 2-8 as the home dog and 0-2 when Vargas starts.
Jose Quintana has put together two outstanding starts and the Cubs have won his last seven starts. I like that to continue Tuesday in Philadelphia against Jason Vargas. The Cubs are in much better form overall than the Phillies, and it's time for Chicago to start amassing some road wins. Lay the reasonable price.
