Miami Marlins vs Kansas City Royals Prediction: Marlins have my support here

Thursday's Major League Baseball action at Marlins Park features a matchup between the Kansas City Royals and the Miami Marlins. 

Over the course of the weekend, the Miami Marlins faced off against the Athletics and came out on top, sweeping them with victories of 4-0, 12-1, and 7-5. On Monday, Miami put up all of their runs between the third and sixth innings of the game. The starting pitcher, Braxton Garrett, went five innings and allowed four earned runs on six hits. The under has a record of 35-13-3 in the Marlins' previous 51 games played in game two of a series, while the Marlins have a record of 5-1 in their last six games played in game two of a series. The total has gone under in 16 of Miami's previous 23 games played on Thursday.

The Kansas City Royals and the Colorado Rockies battled it out throughout the course of the weekend, with the Royals coming out on top with a 2-0 victory on Sunday. On Monday, the Kansas City Royals were up 4-0 against the Miami Marlins when they lost the lead and ended up losing 9-6. The starting pitcher, Carlos Hernandez, went the first two innings without allowing a hit or a walk while striking out three batters. The Kansas City Royals have a record of 20-48 in their previous 68 games in all competitions and a record of 6-15 in their last 21 games against teams from other leagues. In their last 17 games against left-handed starters, the Kansas City Royals have a record of 5-12.

I'm going to continue to support the Marlins. However, considering how rough Luzardo has been lately, it is probably best to steer clear of the area. Luzardo has allowed 11 earned runs across 10.1 innings of work in two of his most recent three starts. In his other start, he threw 5.0 innings while accumulating just one earned run. The Marlins ultimately posted 11 hits as a team on Monday, which was a good offensive performance during the comeback that they staged. Therefore, a bet on the Miami Marlins to win and over 7.5 is another good option to consider.
