Washington Nationals vs Miami Marlins prediction

On paper, the Marlins probably should win this game as they’re at home and Trevor Rogers has above average stuff despite the lack of results this season. The problem is, the Marlins have been the worst team in baseball outside of the White Sox, and backing them in the favorite role just feels nuts. I want nothing to do with the Marlins, and I want even less to do with them as a favorite. Give me the Nationals and the plus money.
