The Dodgers and Marlins are going to be involved in a high scoring game. The Marlins have done a good job of getting hits his season and now they get to face off against Dustin May, whose confidence has been rattled. In his last start he gave up ten hits and seven runs. For the Dodgers, they are going to get to tee off against Cabrera, who sits with a high ERA of 6.16, and he’s not going to magically get any better here. The Marlins played in a 7-6 game on Sunday, and I wouldn’t be shocked if that’s where this game ended up, to. Back the over to end up cashing.
