Marlins vs Padres Prediction

I’m on the Marlins here. I get the case to be made for the Padres after sneaking one out in Monday’s opener, but I think that Cabrera is the far better option here. The Marlins should be able to get some back on Tuesday. The Marlins had chances offensively in Monday’s game, but the thing is that I don’t think that the Padres will have the same luck with Kolek going here. I’ll roll with the Marlins in this one.
