Marlins vs. Nationals Preview and Predictions
by Gracenote on 07/07/2018
The Washington Nationals received a visit from the Miami Marlins at just the right time. The host Nationals will try to maintain their dominance over the Marlins and continue to dig out of a massive slump when the National League East foes continue a four-game series Saturday night.
Mark Reynolds smacked a walk-off home run to lead off the bottom of the ninth inning Friday night as Washington picked up its 13th consecutive victory over Miami and its second in a row overall following a 5-17 swoon. Trea Turner had a pair of hits for the Nationals and is 18-for-41 during a nine-game hot stretch. Max Scherzer will hope for some rare run support as he aims to snap a personal four-game losing streak for Washington on Saturday. Wei-Yin Chen seeks a third straight strong performance for the Marlins, who left eight runners on base in Friday's loss.
TV: 7:15 p.m. ET, Fox
PITCHING MATCHUP: Marlins LH Wei-Yin Chen (2-5, 5.55 ERA) vs. Nationals RH Max Scherzer (10-5, 2.16)
Chen posted a 6.70 ERA through his first 11 starts before letting up one run in six frames in each of his last two outings. He yielded three hits with no walks and five strikeouts in a no-decision against Tampa Bay on Monday. The 32-year-old held Washington to one run in 7 1/3 innings in a May 26 matchup at home, but he has a 7.71 ERA in two career starts at Nationals Park.
Scherzer has an ERA of 2.73 during a five-start winless stretch, during which his team has scored a total of seven runs. He got the win despite giving up a season-high four earned runs in six innings at Miami on May 25. Martin Prado is 16-for-35 with a home run against Scherzer, while J.T. Realmuto is 1-for-24 with nine strikeouts.
WALK-OFFS
1. The Marlins optioned LHP Dillon Peters to Triple-A New Orleans and activated 1B Garrett Cooper from the 60-day disabled list.
2. Miami 2B Starlin Castro is 12-for-21 during a five-game hitting streak.
3. Nationals RF Bryce Harper's average is down to .211, but he has drawn multiple walks in five of his last eight contests.
PREDICTION: Nationals 5, Marlins 3

San Diego Padres vs. Arizona Diamondbacks Preview and Predictions 07-07-2018 in MLB

Padres vs. Diamondbacks Preview and Predictions
by Gracenote on 07/07/2018
Steven Souza Jr. has been limited to 16 games for the Arizona Diamondbacks this season due to a pectoral strain but still figures prominently in the team's push for a division title. Souza is fully recovered and settling in as a fifth-place hitter for Arizona, which continues its four-game series against the visiting San Diego Padres on Saturday.
In his second game since coming off the disabled list for the second time this season, Souza recorded two RBIs on Friday as the Diamondbacks evened the series with a 3-1 victory. Nick Ahmed and Paul Goldschmidt added two hits apiece as Arizona improved to 2-6 on their 10-game homestand. The Padres have dropped 14 of their last 18 games and were held to five hits in Friday's loss as their offense remained quiet. The team had high expectations for Manuel Margot following last year's promising rookie campaign, but the 23-year-old is batting .232 with three homers after going 0-for-4 with a strikeout during Friday's loss.
TV: 10:10 p.m. ET, MLB Network, FS San Diego, FS Arizona
PITCHING MATCHUP: Padres RH Tyson Ross (5-6, 3.78 ERA) vs. Diamondbacks LH Robbie Ray (3-1, 4.89)
Ross is looking to bounce back from his worst start of the season after allowing seven runs over five innings in a 7-5 loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday. The 31-year-old has given up a total of eight homers over his last six starts after serving up just five in his first 11 outings. A.J. Pollock is 2-for-17 against Ross, who is 4-3 with a 2.52 ERA in 14 career games (13 starts) against Arizona - including 2-2 with a 2.96 ERA in nine games (eight starts) at Chase Field.
After tossing six scoreless innings in his return from the disabled list, Ray allowed six runs over five frames in a 6-3 loss to St. Louis on Monday. The 26-year-old native of Tennessee has posted an 11-to-3 strikeout-to-walk ratio over his last two starts covering 11 innings. Ray has gone 4-4 with a 3.93 ERA in nine career starts against San Diego but has struggled to keep Hunter Renfroe in the park (three homers in nine at-bats).
WALK-OFFS
1. Arizona is 25-22 at Chase Field, including 12-9 against National League West rivals.
2. San Diego activated Phil Hughes (rhomboid) from the 10-day disabled list and activated fellow RHP Kirby Yates from the paternity list.
3. The Diamondbacks activated Randall Delgado (oblique) from the 60-day disabled list and designated fellow RHP Fernando Salas for assignment.
PREDICTION: Diamondbacks 6, Padres 4
