The Miami Marlins and Philadelphia Phillies meet Monday in MLB action at Citizens Bank Park. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.
The Miami Marlins have scored 12 runs in their last 3 games and 3 or fewer runs in 8 of their 10 games. The Marlins are 2-6 this season when scoring 3 or fewer runs. Luis Arraez leads the Marlins with 16 hits and 3 RBI, while Garrett Cooper and Jazz Chisholm Jr. have combined for 19 hits and 10 RBI. Sandy Alcantara gets the ball, and he is 1-0 with a 1.84 ERA and 7 strikeouts this season. Alcantara is 6-7 with a 3.15 ERA and 93 strikeouts in his career against the Phillies.
The Philadelphia Phillies have scored 12 runs in their last 3 games and 3 or fewer runs in 5 of their last 8 games. The Phillies are 1-4 this season when scoring 3 or fewer runs. Bryson Stott leads the Phillies with 15 hits and 1 RBI, while Trea Turner and Alec Bohm have combined for 22 hits and 7 RBI. Matt Strahm gets the ball, and he is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA and 4 strikeouts this season. Strahm is 1-1 with a 6.97 ERA and 13 strikeouts in his career against the Marlins.
The Marlins are 9-24 in their last 33 games following a win and 2-5 in their last 7 overall. The Phillies are 22-8 in their last 30 home games and 3-9 in their last 12 overall. The under is 9-4-3 in Marlins last 16 overall. The under is 4-1 in Phillies last 5 overall. The Marlins are 3-8 in the last 11 meetings in Philadelphia and 3-10 in the last 13 meetings.
The Philadelphia Phillies are the better team on paper, and their offense should get going eventually. However, we’re getting a cheap price with one of the best pitchers in baseball in Alcantara, a guy who just threw a complete game shutout. You’re not going to get Alcantara at prices like this often. Give me the fish.
