Rotation #916
Marlins -105 over Astros (loss)
Luzardo/Verlander
Marlins starter Jesus Luzardo is an outstanding strikeout pitcher. Astros starter Justin Verlander used to have double-digit strikeouts regularly, but those days are behind him at age 40. Verlander is still a great pitcher, but the Marlins are excellent against left-handed pitching. Miami has the home-field advantage and should get the win in front of their fans. Take the Marlins.
