Atlanta’s lack of scoring has us on the road team in this spot. Miami hasn’t actually been tearing the cover off of the ball scoring three runs per game compared to Atlanta’s 3.58 over the last seven games, but in our opinion the pitching they have faced has been far superior to what the Braves have. Also the loss of Freedie Freeman with an oblique injury will make it that much more difficult for Atlanta to put up runs. Marlins’ starter Jose Urena is 0-2 with an era over five runs but has recorded back-to-back Q starts in his last two on the road. Matt Wisler is a solid 3-0 at home with an impressive 2.33 ERA, but he’s coming off of his worst effort of the season getting chased in the 5th after allowing seven earned runs. The Marlins could score three and win this game.
