Prediction published on 5/8/24, 11:51 AM  by Lou Aguila in MLB Picks

The Los Angeles Dodgers will try to keep their winning streak rolling as they take on the Miami Marlins in Game 3 of their series on Wednesday at Dodgers Stadium. The 25-13 Dodgers continue to pull away from their rivals in the NL West as they have now built a six-game lead over the next trailer San Diego Padres (19-20) in the standings. The Marlins, on the other hand, lost four of the last five games since sweeping the Colorado Rockies last week. They are at the bottom of the NL East standings with a 10-28 slate.

Pitchers Matchup:

Marlins LHP Ryan Weathers (2-3, 4.54 ERA with 31 strikeouts) is scheduled for his 8th start this season, facing a Dodgers batting squad loaded with weapons from top to bottom. Weathers has had to endure some stormy stints on the mound in his last three starts after giving up 12 earned runs through 15.2 innings.

Dodgers RHP Gavin Stone (2-1, 4.06 ERA with 23 strikeouts) will go for another win on the mound after allowing one earned run through 6.0 innings in the Dodgers’ 4-3 win over the Atlanta Braves on May 3.
