Jon Lester has been superb at Wrigley Field, and he gets a home matchup against a Reds team that struggles with left-handed pitchers.

Jon Lester has been dealing lately, posting a 22.9% strikeout rate and 3.6% walk rate in September, and he gets a nice home matchup with the Cincinnati Reds.

Cincy ranks 27th in wRC+ against southpaws, and their wOBA on the road plummets to .299.

Lester, meanwhile, has excelled at Wrigley Field in 2016. He's limiting hitters to a .240 wOBA in his home outings while his strikeout rate spikes to 25.7%. He's also allowing a meager 25.2% hard-hit rate in the second half.

There are plenty of good arms going tonight -- Rich Hill, Johnny Cueto, Michael Pineda and Fernandez, to name a few -- but Lester may have the highest floor of anyone.
