Washington Nationals vs Miami Marlins Prediction

Adam Oller hasn’t been great in his limited innings, and he’s been rocked in his last two starts. MacKenzie Gore has been hit hard at home this season, but he’s been respectable more times than not and gives the Nationals a chance to win the majority of the time. The Washington Nationals are at home and showing more fight than the Marlins, despite neither side having anything to play for at this stage. The price is somewhat reasonable. Give me the Nats if forced to pick.
