Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins Prediction & Betting Tips - MLB
by Joseph King | in MLB Prediction
Thursday in Major League Baseball sees an early start with the Phillies hosting the Marlins at Citizens Bank Park in downtown Philadelphia. Miami has fallen to a 49-61 record, putting them fourth in the NL East and all but out of the postseason race as they now trail the final Wild Card spot by 12 games. Their opponents however are dealing with a very different situation as the Phillies are battling for a playoff appearance. Philadelphia has seen an excellent run of form improve their record to 62-48 and while they trail the first-place Mets by 10 games, the Phils currently hold the second of the three available Wild Card positions. A slim one game lead over the Brewers in the postseason race means that every game for the hosts takes on an added importance as we enter the final third of the regular season.

Philadelphia Phillies & Miami Marlins Squad Analysis
Getting the start for Philadelphia is Kyle Gibson, looking to add another win to his 7-4 record with an ERA of 4.36. The Phillies have experienced success with Gibson on the mound as of late and have now won in four of the righties' last five starts. Gibson will be hoping to carry over his strong form which saw him pitch an absolute gem in his last start. The eight year pro went a full eight innings, giving up just two hits and one earned run in a 7-2 Phillies win. For the Marlins, exciting righty Edward Cabrera makes only his fifth start of the season. The second-year pro has a 2-1 record with a strong 2.61 ERA through 20 innings pitched. Cabrera has shown good stuff, racking up 23 strikeouts so far on the year but will have to get the walks under control as he has already allowed 12 base on balls.

Our Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins Prediction
We’re going to back under 8 runs as our bet for this game. This has all the makings of a pitcher's duel given both starters are coming into this matchup off the back of strong performances. In Cabrera, the Marlins look to have a real talent as the 24-year-old has shown flashes in his 26 innings pitched so far this season. On the other side, Phillies starter Kyle Gibson has improved his level of play after a mixed first half of the year. The 34-year-old veteran has now only allowed 10 runs in his last five starts, totaling 31 innings of work. Look for a low-scoring encounter here in a game that could wind up being closely fought.
Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins - Other Interesting Predictions
Miami Marlins +1.5
If Cabrera can continue what he's been doing and limit the walks, Miami should be able to keep this one close and potentially steal a win.
