AMEDEUS' MLB GOLD STRIKE!
(MLB) Miami vs. St. Louis,
Money Line: 137.00 Miami (Away)
Result: Loss
The Marlins are coming into this game with a 0-7 record this season and they have already been swept by teams in 2 different series. They opened the season losing 4 straight to the Pirates at home and followed up with 3 straight losses against the Angels. Now they are playing their 1st road game of the season here and they are going to be hungry to finally win a game and end this awful losing streak they have been on to start the season. They are going up against a Cardinals team that has won 2 of their last 3 games, but they are coming off of a loss in their last game and have been inconsistent this season as they are 3-4. Ryan Weathers is starting for the Marlins in this game and he was not bad in Spring Training this year. He was 2-0 with a 3.00 ERA, allowing 6 earned runs in the 18 innings he pitched in. He was not great in his 1st start of the season as his team lost that game to the Pirates, but he was not awful as he allowed 3 earned runs in 4 innings pitched. He is not going to keep the Cardinals off the board completely here but he will do enough to keep the Marlins in this game, and this is a game that the Marlins will be able to score some runs in as well. Lance Lynn is starting for the Cardinals here and has been an awful starter in the league over the last few seasons. He is 0-0 with a 0.00 ERA this season as he allowed no runs in 4 innings in his 1st start against the Dodgers, but he also ended the season last year with the Dodgers and was bringing his best stuff for that game. He was still awful in Spring Training this year as he was 0-2 with a 7.90 ERA as he allowed 12 earned runs in a little under 14 innings pitched. He was not good last season either as he ended the season with a 5.73 ERA, and his last meeting with the Marlins was last season on September 6th, a game he allowed 8 earned runs to the Marlins in a little under 5 innings pitched. Lynn pitched well in his 1st start of the season but it is only a matter of time until he starts to unravel and with the Marlins coming into this game hungry still looking for their 1st win of the season, Lynn is going to get blown up in this game. The Marlins will win this game and get their 1st win of the season.
