In this article, we will formulate a Marlins vs Reds Prediction for this MLB game on Tuesday, April 22nd, at Globe Life Field.  Let’s take a look at a Miami Marlins vs Cincinnati Reds pick. 

What a Win for the Marlins

The Marlins have needed good starting pitching, and they finally got it on Monday, which led to the win. Max Meyer was on the mound, and he went six innings, giving up five hits and zero runs. Kyle Stowers had a huge game, hitting a home run and driving in three RBIs to help pace the offense. Even though they had a strong start from Meyer, the pitching almost blew it late, giving up three runs in the 8th inning. 

The Marlins are averaging 4.48 runs while their pitching is giving up 5.52 runs per game. The offense is ranked 12th while the defense is ranked 18th. The pitching overall this season has really let them down. Matt Mervis has hit six home runs and driven in 12 RBIs. Getting the start for the Marlins will be Edward Cabrera, who sits with a 0-1 record and an ERA of 6.65. Against the Arizona Diamondbacks, he went four innings, giving up four hits and five runs.

Another Loss for the Reds

The stats for the Reds show they should have a better record than they have, and they picked up another loss on Monday. Early in the game, the Reds bats were ice cold and if they want to turn it around here, On Sunday the Reds offense put up 25 hits and 24 runs, it really feels like they used up all their scoring in that game and didn’t leave any for the first game of this series. 

The Reds are averaging 5.32 runs while their pitching is giving up 3.87 runs per game. The offense is ranked 4th while the pitching is ranked 7th. Elly De La Cruz has hit five home runs and driven in 22 RBIs. Nick Martinez is getting the start for the Reds, and he sits with a 0-3 record and an ERA of 6.00. Against the Seattle Mariners in his last start, he went 4.2 innings, giving up seven hits and four runs. 

Marlins vs Reds Prediction

If you like scoring, this is going to be the game for you. The Reds’ offense has been strong almost all season, and they get to tee off on Cabrera, who sits with a 0-1 record and an ERA of 6.52. In his last start, he gave up five runs, and he’s going to be even worse here. The Reds will have scored five or six runs by the time he leaves the game. The bad news for the Reds is that Nick Martinez is on the mound for him, and in his last start, he gave up seven hits and four runs. Both of the pitchers are going to get teed off on, and the over will end up cashing.
