Who will win Marlins vs Giants today: Marlins moneyline (-108)
The Miami Marlins
head into this one having won three of their last four contests, and when Sandy Alcantara
is on the hill, they always have a chance to win. The righty has compiled a 2-2 record and 3.06 ERA this season, holding opponents to a .197 average.
While the San Francisco Giants
did just take two out of three against the Los Angeles Dodgers
, they scored only six runs in total, and the Giants were shut out in the rubber match. Alcantara allowed just two earned runs last time out.
Also, Adrian Houser
has struggled immensely this season for San Fran. He owns a 5.40 ERA and a 0-2 record through four starts, with opponents batting .292. Miami has scored 18 runs across its last three road contests as well.
COVERS INTEL:
The Marlins are 4-1 in their last five meetings with the Giants, and they swept San Francisco last summer at Oracle Park.
Marlins vs Giants Over/Under pick: Under 7.5 runs (-110)
Three of the last four meetings have cashed the Under, and San Fran just hit the Under in all three contests against the Dodgers at home. They’re 30th in runs scored and 29th in home runs. This offense isn’t thriving, and when Alcantara is on, he’s hard to hit.
While Houser’s 5.40 ERA is concerning, his FIP is sitting at 4.44.He has definitely struggled, but it’s not like getting lit up for six or seven runs each start.
That being said, he has allowed four earned runs in three straight, and the Marlins' offense is averaging 4.5 runs per game.
They will be the ones doing most of the scoring, but it won’t be a high-scoring affair. Miami’s bullpen, which has a 3.13 ERA, will also keep the Giants at bay after Alcantara departs.
