Free MLB Pick
The Marlins have destroyed Buchanan’s offerings over his career with the active roster hitting a lifetime .375 against him. That’s the opposite of what the Phillies have done against Conley in limited at bats hitting just .188. The Miami left hander is 3-0 on the season, but the Marlins are 7-1 in his eight starts in 2015 and the Phillies have won just one of their last seven games. So, you can see where the lines maker is going here. We’re not going to lay that on a team that has lost eight of the last nine meetings between these two. Instead will take a shot on the run line and hope that the game plays out to the starters form.
