Nationals -157, First 5 Innings, Butler / Gonzalez

BOL

The Cubs are going to get some support here as they are listed at 12-6 versus left handed starters. All well and good, but they must have beaten some bullpens (lefty-righty unknown) because in the 5 inning game they are only 9-8-1 versus lefty, barely average. Today they send the very average Eddie Butler out to meet the under-the-radar-good Gio Gonzalez for the first 5 innings. Pitching and offense stack up very nicely for the Nationals in that regard and if the 5 inning line were not based on the 9 inning line they would be much higher.
