The Miami Marlins are 63-71 on the year and play the Nationals, Phillies, and Nationals next. The Miami Marlins are batting .249 on the season, have a .313 OBP, and a .392 slugging percentage.

Jonah Tong will make his major league debut when he takes the mound tonight. Tong was 16-11 with a 2.87 ERA and 377 strikeouts in his minor league career. In the minors this year, Tong was 10-5 with a 1.43 ERA and 179 strikeouts.
Miami Marlins vs New York Mets Prediction
The Marlins haven’t been able to string together wins this season and while Perez has been solid this season overall, his ERA goes from 2.25 at home to 4.42 on the road. I have a rule of avoiding pitchers making their big league debut because there’s no sample size. However, Tong isn’t your normal debut, as he’s considered a top-50 prospect in baseball and has elite level strikeout ability. Tong has gotten comparisons to Tim Lincecum, and while it will take time to fill those shoes, the stuff is there to be an ace at some point. I’m rolling with the Mets.
