14 straight Ws for the !The dominance continues. 14 straight Ws for the ! "The dominance continues." - MLB The Cubs will trot out Keegan Thompson, who has a 6-2 record and a 3.67 ERA. The righty Thompson got knocked around by the Yankees on the road his last time out, not even being able to complete the first inning before giving up three earned runs. This was his worst start of the year, and he'll have another tough lineup to navigate on Friday. The Braves rank seventh in runs per nine innings, first in OPS, and second in home runs. They've also scored eight or more runs in each of their previous three games. Thompson averages under four innings per start, which isn't encouraging, given that the Cubs have the second-highest bullpen ERA in the majors. Atlanta will have veteran Charlie Morton on the hill Friday, carrying a 4-3 record and a 5.67 ERA. Morton has given up exactly four runs in each of his last four starts, but luckily for him, his club has provided enough run support to come out on top in three of them. He's been able to keep his team in games, but his numbers haven't been great as his stuff has been very hittable lately. He does rack up a lot of strikeouts as he's K'd 20 hitters in his last 11 innings of work. Fortunately for him, this Cubs lineup isn't too scary and ranks 19th in runs per nine, so he could be able to allow less than four runs this time around.
