Reds at Pirates SGP: Bucs rally behind Skenes
The Pittsburgh Pirates have ace Paul Skenes on the mound tonight against the Cincinnati Reds, and the right-hander continues to dominate despite his 6-7 record.
Skenes is averaging 13.5 strikeouts per nine innings over his last two starts, including a 10-strikeout performance last time out. He also owns a 2.68 FIP over the last month.
Andrew Abbott has pitched well on the surface, but his recent numbers suggest regression. He owns a 5.30 FIP over his last two outings while walking more than five hitters per nine innings.
Bryan Reynolds enters scorching hot, batting .432 over his last 12 games with a 15-game hitting streak.

Cubs at Brewers SGP: The Misiorowski show
Jacob Misiorowski has been arguably the best pitcher in baseball this season, and he continues to dominate. The Milwaukee Brewers right-hander owns a stellar 1.10 FIP across his last four starts and hasn't allowed a home run during that span.
He's also stayed Under 1.5 earned runs in four of his last five outings while pitching into the seventh inning or later in four of those starts.
The Chicago Cubs counter with Colin Rea, who owns a 5.96 xERA over his last 25.1 innings. William Contreras enters scorching hot, batting .435 over his last six games while cashing the Over on total bases in three of his last five contests.

Dodgers at Padres SGP: Buehler deals against ex-team
Walker Buehler has been showing shades of his former self. The San Diego Padres veteran owns a 2.33 FIP over his last two outings, and he's allowed just 0.87 HRs and BBs per nine innings during that span. Buehler has cashed the Under in earned runs surrendered in four straight starts.
The Los Angeles Dodgers send Roki Sasaki to the hill, and he is struggling. He has an FIP over six across his previous two appearances while posting a 43.3% hard-hit rate. Buehler will contain his ex-team, and the Padres will capitalize off Sasaki's struggles.
Samad Taylor is one of those players who should find success against the righty. He carries a .435 average across the last week into this matchup, and Taylor has smacked five hits over his previous two games.
