Pirates vs. Marlins Probable Pitchers

Pirates: Carmen Mlodzinski (6-4, 3.51 ERA)
Marlins: Janson Junk (5-7, 4.63 ERA)

Carmen Mlodzinski’s return to the starting rotation didn’t go as planned over the weekend. He allowed five runs on seven hits in three innings in a 6-4 loss to the Mets.

Janson Junk also only went three innings in his last start, but that was due to a rain delay. He yielded two runs on five hits against the Braves. He’s now allowed just four runs (three earned) on 15 hits in 12.2 innings in his last three starts.

Pirates vs. Marlins Best MLB Prop Bets

Pirates Best MLB Prop Bet

Carmen Mlodzinski OVER 4.5 Hits Allowed (-141)

Mloszinski has allowed at least five hits in nine of 10 starts this season, yielding 59 hits in 47 innings. He was better out of the bullpen, allowing 41 hits in 50.1 frames, but the right-hander is back in the rotation now.

The Marlins found their offense in a 12-3 win over the Angels before clawing out a victory against Paul Skenes. I’ll back the Fish to get at least five hits off the starter tonight.

Pirates vs. Marlins Prediction and Pick

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

The Marlins have won three in a row to get back over .500. That includes a 2-0 victory against Paul Skenes and the Pirates last night.

Pittsburgh has been fading for a while, as the Buccos are just 1-6 in their last seven games. They’ve scored two runs or fewer in five of those six losses, and four runs in the other defeat.

Miami has been great at home all year long at 37-24, and Pittsburgh is just 28-33 on the road.

Pick: Marlins (-108)
