The Miami Marlins and Atlanta Braves face off on Saturday in a National League MLB showdown at SunTrust Park. When these two teams faced off on Friday it was the Braves that won 3-0. 

The Braves come into this game with a 7-8 record overall and they have won two of their last three games. Over the last two wins the Braves have given up only one run total and they need to continue to get good pitching. Marcell Ozuna has been the top player for the Braves hitting four home runs and driving in 10 RBI’s. Ozzie Albies has also hit five home runs. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Miami Marlins who sit with a 5-8 record overall and they have lost three of their last four games. The biggest issue for this Marlins team has been with the offense. Over the last three losses, the Marlins have scored only one run total. Jazz Chisholm has been one of the only bright spots for this Marlins offense hitting three home runs and driving in 12 RBI’s. 

Elieser Hernandez gets the start for the Marlins and he sits with a 1-1 record and an ERA of 4.22. He has had 11 strikeouts this season. In his last start against the Phillies, he went six innings giving up five hits and one run.

Getting the start for the Braves will be Ian Anderson and he sits with a 1-1 record and an ERA of 6.48. In his last start against the Padres he went 5.2 innings giving up two hits and one run.

The Marlins are 3-9 in their last 12 games. The Braves are 15-6 in their last 21 home games. The Marlins are 19-46 in their last 65 meetings. The over is 5-2-1 in the last eight meetings played between the two teams. 

Both starting pitchers are coming off of strong starts and i expect they will continue the success in this game. I especially don’t trust the Marlins offense to do a whole lot of scoring here and that will lead to the under cashing. Back the under.

The pick in this article is the opinion of the writer, not a PickDawgz site consensus.
