Marlins vs. Astros Probable Pitchers

Marlins: Sandy Alcantara (10-5, 3.89 ERA)

Sandy Alcantara has put together a strong season while throwing an MLB-high 136.2 innings in 21 starts.

Yordan Alvarez OVER 1.5 Bases (-111)

I’m running this prop back tonight at a -111 price.

Marlins vs. Astros Prediction and Pick

I broke down this pick in SI Betting’s daily MLB best bets column, Walk-Off Wagers:

The Marlins are starting to look like the team that many expected them to be this season. Miami has lost eight in a row, scoring just 21 runs during that stretch. The Fish are now just 21-30 on the road this year.

Houston has bounced back nicely in these two games against Miami with 13 runs after putting up 11 runs during a four-game losing streak.

Peter Lambert has found new life in Houston this season, and I’ll back him and the Astros as home favorites tonight.

Pick: Astros -118
