Dempster Getting Shelled
There are not many pitchers in all of baseball pitching worse than Ryan Dempster is right now. He has just been horrible of late. He is coming off the worst loss of his career in his last start against Arizona. He faced 10 batters and got only one out. He allowed seven runs on four hits with four walks. He is 1-3 on the season with a 9.58 ERA. His numbers in his last three starts are so bad it is hard to believe. He is 0-1 with a 15.55 ERA. There is one positive though for Dempster on Tuesday night. He is 7-3 in his career against the Dodgers with a 2.81 ERA.
Los Angeles Starting Pitcher – Chad Billingsley
Last time out Billingsley gave up just one earned run in 6 1/3 innings but he walked three more batters and that has become a problem. He is 2-1 on the year with a 4.46 ERA but in his last three starts he is 1-0 with a 2.21 ERA. He is 4-3 in his career against the Cubs with an ERA of 3.47.
Game Notes
Somehow the Cubs are 25-12 in their last 37 road games. It seems hard to believe but the Cubs have been a decent play on the road for those that bet on MLB.
