Phillip Ervin in the lineup for Cincinnati on Thursday
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Phillip Ervin is in the starting lineup for Thursday's road game against the Chicago Cubs.
Jess Winker is getting a routine day off, and Ervin will spell him in right field while batting seventh against Cubs' lefty Jon Lester.
Strong winds are blowing out at Wrigley Field today, and even as underdogs, this game's 12.5 over/under leaves the Reds with a strong 5.15 implied total.
