Marlins vs Rangers Pickswise Expert Predictions
In this game, we will see the Miami Marlins take on the Texas Rangers. Originally this one was slated to be a matchup between Adam Mazur of the Marlins and Patrick Corbin of the Rangers. The Rangers have switched to Jack Leiter because Corbin needed to pitch the 12th inning last night, in which he gave up 2 earned runs to lose the game. Looking at Mazur, he has started 5 games this season pitching 26 innings and giving up 28 hits and 14 earned runs. The issue is that Mazur has given up 4+ earned runs in 3 of those 5 starts. Luckily for Mazur, the Rangers have only scored 19 runs over the past 6 games. They are only batting .234 in that time, and their hitting struggles are the whole reason they will not make the playoffs this season.
For the Rangers, Leiter will take the mound. Leiter has been good this season but holds a 9-9 record thanks to the hitting struggles mentioned above. Through his last 3 starts, he has given up 15 hits and 8 runs in 17.1 total innings. While his numbers are good, he will go up against a Marlins team that is batting .275 with 35 runs in the last 6 games. The stark hitting difference between these teams was on display last night when the Marlins out hit the Rangers by a 14-4 margin. Outside of starting pitchers, the Rangers have had the better bullpen on the season but burned through the entire bullpen last night. This means that they will look to push Leiter too long or use a tired bullpen. Overall, the hitting of the Marlins will be too much for a depleted Rangers bullpen with no run support. I am taking the Marlins to get the win.
