Marlins vs Giants Prediction

Miami comes into this game with only three wins on the season and they are 1-10 at home so far this year. The Marlins have a team ERA over five and their team batting average is just .215. San Francisco hasn’t been able to win two games in a row over the last week or so, but they also haven’t lost two in a row. The Giants are starting Jordan Hicks, who has allowed two earned runs over 18.0 innings in three starts this year. The Marlins are going with Ryan Weathers, who has allowed four earned runs over 14.0 innings pitched in three starts. Weathers has pitched much better than I thought he would so far this year and Hicks has been great for the Giants. Take the under here.
