Cleveland Guardians vs. Miami Marlins Prediction

I’m on the Marlins in this one. The Marlins just continue to be one of the hottest hitting teams in all of baseball and I look for that to continue here against Parker Messick, who is still a decent option for Cleveland but the Marlins have been better at hitting against left-handed pitching this year compared to past seasons. Miami on the other hand with Sandy Alcantara going, has been money this season and I’m looking for Alcantara to have another strong showing at home, where he’s been far better this season. Give me Miami in this one.
