Phillies vs Marlins Prediction
The Phillies are 7-3 in their last 10 meetings against the Marlins and have won two of their last three visits in Miami.
In this Phillies vs Marlins Prediction, the Marlins are coming as -115 home favorites. I like the Marlins to keep rolling at home in this one as they will be facing a struggling Aaron Nola, who has been terrible this season with a 5.82 ERA and 1.45 WHIP. On the flip side, Sandy Alcantara has been very good at home with a 3.26 ERA and the Marlins have both a better bullpen and are better than the Phillies against right-handed pitching. Take the Marlins to win.
