Marlins vs Braves Prediction
Atlanta was able to pick up a shutout win in game two on Saturday afternoon, as they try to keep pace with the Mets and Phillies in the NL East. The Braves are 13-25 on the road this year, while the Marlins are 16-24 at home. Miami has scored two runs or fewer in three of their last four games and they are facing Elder, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. The Marlins are starting Alcantara, who has some bad numbers on the season, but has pitched much better in his last three starts. I think the pitching matchup is pretty even, so I will back Atlanta, as I trust their offense way more. Take the Braves here.
