Miami Marlins vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Marlins are 1-4 on this west coast red trip, and Quantrill isn’t providing much hope, given that he’s allowed 32 hits and 20 runs in 23 innings. Gonsolin hasn’t pitched since 2023 as he had Tommy John surgery and then started this season with a back issue. I don’t expect much from Gonsolin or for him to pitch long given the massive layoff. Still, the Dodgers are the more trustworthy team overall and have the offense to pick up the pieces if the pitching goes south. I’ll roll with the Dodgers and take the RL to shave down the juice.
