Today’s matchup is between the Miami Marlins (33-29) and the Atlanta Braves (37-25).
The Marlins are starting Sandy Alcantara (RHP), who is 3-2 on the season pitching a 3.00 ERA, 3.72 FIP, .284 wOBA, K% of 22.7%, BB% of 8.7%, 88.3 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.19 WHIP in 42.0 innings pitched.
The Braves are starting Max Fried (LHP), who is 7-0 on the season with a 2.25 ERA, 3.10 FIP, .272 wOBA, K% of 22.3%, BB% of 8.5%, 83.4 MPH average exit velocity, and a 1.09 WHIP in 56.0 innings pitched.
The Marlins are the 29th best in the Majors in Relieving Pitching, while the Braves are 6th.
On the hitting side, the Marlins have a .303 wOBA and a .317 OBP. The Braves have a .349 wOBA and a .345 OBP. The Marlins have 60 HRs this season while the Braves have 103 HRs.
I like the Braves to cover the spread here, the Braves are solid against RHP and when the Marlins resort to their bullpen, the Braves should pull away.
