The Rockies will have Kyle Freeland on the mound, who has been in excellent form this season, especially when pitching at home. Expect Freeland to deliver a solid start against a struggling Marlins offense that ranks 29th in the league in average runs per game.
On the other side, the Marlins will start Braxton Garrett, who has shown some promise but has struggled to receive run support from his team. Although Garrett has had some solid outings, he has also had a couple of rough starts, including back-to-back appearances where he gave up a total of 15 earned runs in just 9.2 innings.
When evaluating the overall offensive capabilities, the Rockies have a slight edge. With a more reliable lineup, the Rockies have the potential to generate runs and secure a victory against the Marlins.
Considering Freeland's strong performance at home, the struggles of the Marlins' offense, and the Rockies' offensive advantage, it's a favorable bet to choose the Rockies to win this game outright as underdogs.
