Giants vs. Marlins Prediction
Will the Marlins beat the travel-weary Giants on Monday night when the two teams meet at 7:10PM ET?
According to oddsmakers from online sports book BetDSI, the Marlins are -130 money line favorites versus the Giants, who have odds of +120 to pull off the upset in Miami. With Ty Blach set to face Adam Conley in the pitching matchup, the over/under currently sits at 8.5 runs.

From Rotoworld: Blach allowed two earned runs, seven hits and a walk with three strikeouts over seven innings in a win against the Cubs on Tuesday. Blach threw 64 of his 100 pitches for strikes. He has posted three straight quality starts while lasting at least seven innings in five straight outings. The left-hander secured a regular spot in the rotation when Madison Bumgarner went down earlier in the season and he hasn’t looked back.
Conley was charged with a loss to the Nationals after allowing five runs in five innings on Wednesday. Ryan Zimmerman was his nemesis today, whacking a solo homer in the second inning, rapping an RBI double in the third and lacing an RBI single in the fifth. Conley put a lot of runners on base today, surrendering 11 base knocks and walking three batters while fanning four. His record falls to 4-5 with a 5.43 ERA and 1.49 WHIP in 59 2/3 innings.
Bet Tonight’s Giants vs. Marlins Game
OUR PREDICTION: This is a bad spot for the Giants. They traveled to Washington over the weekend and after the game was postponed on Friday night due to bad weather, they had a delay on Saturday and then played a double-header on Sunday. Then they hopped a flight to Miami. The Giants have turned things around a little bit recently, but I don’t like them in this spot against a Marlins team that has plenty of offensive firepower.
