Miami Marlins vs Washington Nationals Prediction

The Marlins and Nationals have been in a free fall over the last few weeks, so if forced to pick a side, I want the team that’s giving out the more favorable price. That happens to be the Marlins. Cabrera is a young, talented pitcher who is starting to come into his own, which includes allowing 30 hits and seven earned runs in his last 31 innings. The Nationals have scored a combined two runs in Parker’s last three starts. Parker has also allowed three or more earned runs in seven of his last eight starts. The Marlins have the edge in starting pitching. I’ll take the road team and the plus money.
