Your Analysis
Let's ride no hitter boy tonight.
Wade Miley has been one of the most consistent pitchers in the big leagues and probably should have been named to the NL All star team.
He rolls into tonight's battle with the Cubs 8-4 with a 2.72 ERA and since giving up 8 earned runs over 3 innings against the Rockies on May 14th, he has been solid.
Over his last 11 starts since the implosion in the altitude of Coors field, he has allowed more than 2 earned runs only once: at home against the Phillies on June 28th.
He won the game with 4 earned over 6 innings of the Reds 12-4 win.
Other than that, 2 earned runs or less in the other 10 starts and the Reds are 8-2 as a team in those 10 games.
As I said at the top, Miley has operated under the radar pretty much all year long and all he has done is be a great money making pitcher this year.
Overall, the Reds are 13-6 in his 19 starts this year.
Kyle Hendricks rolls in 12-4 with a higher ERA at 3.61 and truth be told, he has been one of the Cubs most consistent pitchers.
But his career numbers against the Reds is 6-5 with a 4.24 ERA.
Give me Miley as a dog tonight.
