Cincinnati Reds vs Miami Marlins Prediction

Andrew Abbott has been pitching his best baseball of the season heading into this game and the success is going to continue here. The Marlins’ offense has been an issue all season, and they are going to really struggle to get anything going here. The Reds’ offense will tee off on Cabrera early, and it will be the Reds that get the job done. Back the Reds on the run line to cash.
