Senga burned me last week - but going back to him vs the Cubs who see the most pitches per PA 4.06. Senga under in 5/8, and 3/3 on the road. Despite some injuries, CHC offense has been good of late - top 11 in wRC+/OPS vs RHP L2 weeks.

Project 8.1; Smyly regression coming per xFIP, neither team hits splits well (Mets v L, Cubs v R)
