"The Cubs' suddenly dynamic hitters could really use the conditions to their advantage, especially with the wind expected to pick up throughout the afternoon."
"Edward Cabrera has yet to allow a homer through three starts, and he's done a very good job of limiting hard contact with his unique pitching style."
"Cabrera typically locates the heater near or above the top of the zone with the change working the bottom arm-side corner, making him a challenging opponent."
"Nico Hoerner is looking like an MVP candidate in the leadoff spot, while the rest of the lineup aims to capitalize on favorable weather conditions."
The Cubs are performing well and are set to play the Mets at home. Wind conditions are expected to increase, potentially benefiting the Cubs' hitters. They will not face Juan Soto but will contend with Edward Cabrera, who has not allowed a home run in three starts. Cabrera's pitching style includes a fastball with significant movement and an effective changeup. The Cubs' lineup features strong players like Nico Hoerner and Alex Bregman, while they face righty Kodai Senga, who has been inconsistent.
