The Miami Marlins and New York Yankees meet Saturday in MLB action at Yankee Stadium.
The Miami Marlins look for a win after splitting their last 10 games. The Marlins have scored 12 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last nine games. The Marlins have won seven of their last nine games when scoring four or more runs. Jesus Aguilar leads the Marlins with 52 hits and 34 RBI while Brian Anderson and Corey Dickerson have combined for 99 hits and 53 RBI. Trevor Rogers gets the ball, and he is 1-2 with a 6.84 ERA and 35 strikeouts this season. This will be Rogers’ first career game against the Yankees.
The New York Yankees need a win after losing five of their last six games. The Yankees have scored five runs in their last three games and three or less runs in four of their last eight games. The Yankees have lost four straight games when scoring three or less runs. DJ LeMahieu leads the Yankees with 65 hits and 24 RBI while Luke Voit and Gio Urshela have combined for 102 hits and 79 RBI. Deivi Garcia gets the ball, and he is 2-2 with a 4.88 ERA and 26 strikeouts this season. This will be Garcia’s first career game against the Marlins.
The Marlins are 25-51 in their last 76 during game 2 of a series, 3-8 in their last 11 interleague games and 5-16 in their last 21 Saturday games. The Yankees are 4-0 in their last 4 during game 2 of a series, 4-1 in their last 5 interleague home games and 55-24 in their last 79 Saturday games. The over is 11-4-1 in Marlins last 16 road games. The over is 8-2 in Yankees last 10 overall. The Marlins are 2-5 in the last 7 meetings in New York.
Deivi Garcia hasn't been a world beater this season, but Trevor Rogers has been awful in the month of September where he has a 9.56 ERA through 16 innings and the Marlins have lost three of his last four starts. Also, the Miami Marlins just clinched their first postseason berth in 17 years and you can bet there's going to be a fair bit of celebrating, and this is a quick turnaround. The New York Yankees should be the fresher team here, and I'll take the RL to shave down the expensive ML price.
