Rays vs Marlins Prediction

The Marlins just can’t find enough offense to get out of their losing ways. So, while Cabrera is finally starting to find his footing and looking like a promising young pitcher, it doesn’t matter. Cabrera hasn’t allowed a run in his last 11.1 innings and has allowed six runs in his last 27 innings. I still don’t trust the Marlins as a team. Littell has been just as good, allowing 37 hits and 13 runs in his last 40.2 innings. The Rays have also won 12 of their last 15 games. Give me the Rays, and of course I’ll lay the RL to shave down the price.
