Chicago Cubs vs. Ryan Feltner (6.12 ERA), Colorado Rockies

The Cubs are not the greatest team in the world, and they certainly aren't a team that you would target too often, but they have a significant advantage here with Feltner on the mound for the Rockies. Chicago is an average team that lacks top-end talent but has a lot of good suppo rt players that can put up runs in a hurry if you aren't careful. They just swept the New York Mets, so look out for this team down the stretch as an upset candidate against the better squads.

In his last outing, Feltner gave up four earned runs on four hits and four walks while striking out three over 2.2 innings to take the loss in a 12-6 defeat against the Diamondbacks. He struggled with his control and issued four walks in the third inning alone. Feltner threw only 37 of his 70 pitches for strikes and his ERA rose to 6.12 with the poor outing. He has issued a ridiculous 28 walks in 75 innings pitched this season.
