Cubs also have the better bullpen.
Except that, for the record, most of the guys who hit him well are either not starting or not on the team:
Welington Castillo 6-12
Nate Shierholtz 4-8
Ryan Sweeney 3-7
Luis Valbuena 6-14

Rizzo (6-14, HR) is the starter that did hit him well last season. But Castro/Coghlan/Soler were combined 2-20.

Cubs win though.
