Miami Marlins vs Texas Rangers Prediction


The Marlins are a young scrappy team that’s finishing the season strong and Junk has been better on the road where he has a 3.72 ERA compared to a 5.22 ERA at home. The Rangers are having a rough week where they’ve nearly played themselves out of the wild card race. Mahle has been great this season, but he hasn’t pitched since June due to a shoulder injury. I have no idea what to expect from Mahle. Give me the Marlins and the more favorable price with the way both teams are playing right now.
