Miami Marlins vs. Atlanta Braves Prediction
I’m on the Marlins here. I get the case to be made for the Braves as they’ve looked like the better team so far in this series and the Marlins automatic run has come to a bit of an end. However, Cal Quantrill is still the most profitable pitcher in baseball and the Marlins behind him have been one of the best teams on the road for much of the year so I’ll roll with Miami here.
