Miami Marlins vs Boston Red Sox Prediction
The Miami Marlins are back to their slumping ways where the offense isn’t producing and throwing out an inexperienced pitcher in Kyle Tyler doesn’t make them anymore attractive. The Boston Red Sox are starting to make their push for a wild card spot, and these are Games they need to take advantage of to keep making progress. Nick Pivetta has above average stuff and legit strikeout potential, and he’s facing a Marlins’ offense that’s dreadful at the moment. This should be a Red Sox sweep, and I’ll lay the RL to shave down the juice.
