Marlins 5, Athletics 3

Miami has played a tough slate during its recent slump. Cabrera gives the Marlins the better chance in the games early innings, and the Miami pen especially the back end is in much better shape heading into this contest.

Take the Marlins up to a -140 price. PASS otherwise.

The tag here works better than the above play on the Money Line. BACK MIAMI -1.5 (+120).

A runs-versus-runs expected analysis comes out pretty even on both sides. There is some lean against the pitching, and on a breeze-out evening the low number here would be worth a look if it got plus return.

PASS on the current Over 7.5, but thats the play if the tag hits +105 or better.
