Expert Betting Tips

The Marlins have our support in this contest. Jesus Luzardo has been pretty much as excellent as described as the high-upside arm, and we expected him to play well here. Even though Atlanta is widely considered to be the best road team in the MLB, we believe that Miami will pull off the upset in this matchup.
