Miami Marlins vs San Francisco Giants Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 8/30/24, 10:38 PM  by Edgar Jibran | Modified on 9/5/24 at 1:17 AM in MLB Picks

One of the last matches that will take place next Saturday, August 31st, corresponds to the clash between San Francisco Giants and Miami Marlins, teams that will face at 07:05 pm Central Time. This match will also represent the second game of the series between them, so there’s a big expectation on what the Giants could do to increase its offensive effectiveness.

It’s also important to remember that San Francisco Giants is 13.5 games behind Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West Division, so they practically have no chances of competing for any playoffs spot. Even though, it’s important to remark that Matt Chapman is recognized as the leader in scored runs with 88 during the whole season, connecting 123 hits throughout the season too. In addition, Logan Webb is the pitching leader with 11 victories and 150 strikeouts.

On Miami Marlins’ case, this team is in the bottom of the NL East Division with an awful performance of 49W and 86L, no having any left opportunity to qualify for the playoffs. One of the weaknesses of this team is the big dependency they’ve on Jake Burger, player that is the runs leader with 58 runs completed and 25 home runs connected. For this match, Edwards Cabrera will most likely be the opener pitcher, a player who has achieved 81 strikeouts after 70.2 played innings.
