Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Miami Marlins Prediction

I’m on the Marlins in this one. I still think that Sheehan is the weakest link of this Dodger rotation and I look for Miami to take advantage of that in this game. Eury Perez has had his ups and downs but he’s been at his best at home this season and I think that the Marlins take care of business here. Give me Miami.
