The Miami Marlins and Colorado Rockies meet Monday in MLB action at Coors Field.Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

Miami Marlins Betting Preview

The Miami Marlins have scored 9 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 8 of their last 11 games. The Marlins have won 6 of their last 9 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Luis Arraez leads the Marlins with 60 hits and 15 RBI, while Bryan De La Cruz and Jorge Soler have combined for 85 hits and 45 RBI. Edward Cabrera gets the ball, and he is 3-3 with a 5.13 ERA and 55 strikeouts this season. This will be Cabrera’s second career game against the Rockies.

Colorado Rockies Betting Preview

The Colorado Rockies have scored 10 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 5 of their last 8 games. The Rockies have won 10 of their last 12 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Kris Bryant leads the Rockies with 47 hits and 16 RBI, while Elias Diaz and Charlie Blackmon have combined for 85 hits and 39 RBI. Chase Anderson gets the ball, and he is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA and 5 strikeouts this season. Anderson is 3-3 with a 4.14 ERA and 38 strikeouts in his career against the Marlins.

Trends

The Marlins are 1-4 in their last 5 Monday games and 5-2 in their last 7 overall. The Rockies are 7-3 in their last 10 home games and 1-4 in their last 5 overall. The under is 3-1-1 in Marlins last 5 overall. The over is 3-0-1 in Rockies last 4 overall. The Marlins are 1-8 in the last 9 meetings in Colorado and 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.

Randy’s Pick

Edward Cabrera is a talented young pitcher who will eventually blossom into something, but right now he has issues with his control with 30 walks in 40.1 innings and that scares me in Coors. Chase Anderson has just 10 innings under his belt this season, but he's a veteran pitcher, so I'm not worried about him getting going. I'll take a shot with the Rockies and plus money, as I don't trust Cabrera and his wildness in a hitter friendly park.
