The Cubs are in third place in the National League Central with 63 wins and a win rate of 0.426. They have a poor away record of 32-41 and are 5-5 in their last ten matchups.

The Marlins are struggling this season. Garett Cooper has contributed a lot to the scoring, though. He has an OPS of 0.748, nine home runs and 49 RBIs with an average of 0.259 this season. Sandy Alcantara is doing great in pitching. He has an ERA of 2.37, 188 Ks, and a WHIP of 1.01 this season.

The Cubs, meanwhile, have been doing well this season but have lacked consistency. Nico Hoerner has contributed to the scoring with an OPS of 0.759 at an average of 0.291. He is injured currently, so in his absence, other players need to step up and deliver.

Justin Steele has performed the pitching duties. He has an ERA of 3.18, 126 Ks and a WHIP of 1.35 this season. The dependency on Steele has been immense, and his absence creates a void in the team.
