Miami Marlins vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction

The Marlins haven’t won a lot of games this season, but this will be one that they do. Rogers hasn’t found a ton of success this year, but he is finally showing some signs of turning it around. People forget just a couple of years ago how dominant Rogers was on the mound. The Marlins aren’t going to run up the score against Lodolo, but they will score four or five runs total, and that will be enough to get the job done. Back the Marlins on the money line to cash.
