Rockies vs Marlins Prediction

Both teams were tied 3-3 in their six meetings last season, with the Rockies sweeping the only series in Miami by 3-0 wins. Over is 5-2 in their last 7 meetings.

In this Rockies vs Marlins Prediction, the Marlins are coming as -180 home favorites. The Rockies posed absolutely no threat away from Colorado last season, with just 18 wins in 81 road games played. They also had the second-worse bullpen ERA last season and were a bottom-5 team against right-handed pitching. Alcantara had a forgettable season last year but was still better at home, so I expect the Marlins to win their season opener at home.
