Rockies vs Marlins Prediction

The Marlins have won their last five meetings against the Rockies but the Rockies are 3-2 in their last 5 meetings in Miami. The last four meetings between those two teams in Miami have gone under the total.  

In this Rockies vs Marlins Prediction, the Marlins are coming as -190 home favorites. The Marlins won both games of this series but both were one-run games. The Rockies are putting the veteran Quintana on the mound, who has been a huge upgrade to their roster in the offseason and he had been far better on the road last season, with a 2.97 ERA. Meyer had been shaky at best for the Marlins last season and with both teams struggling to hit the ball I will take a stab with the underdog in this one. Take the Rockies on the moneyline for plus money.
