Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Marlins at Nationals (4/3)

The Marlins, coming off an impressive win yesterday, once again will face the Nationals.

The starting pitcher for the Marlins is Scott Olsen.  While the Nats have Shawn Hill on their mind.

Game time is 7:05 p.m.

Yea, a game I will get to see...or at least some part of it.

Olsen has made three starts against the Nationals, recording a record of 1-1 with a .260 ERA.  Walks have been a problem in the past against our host team.

Hill has never pitched against the Marlins before.  Which makes facing him, a little bit like a blast from the past when most of the Marlins hadn't seen any of the pitchers they were up against last year.

Ichtyomancy is good to go.  The Ichtyomancy standings table will return after the series with Washington.  I want to give everyone a chance to score a point before putting it up.  Or, another way to say that is: it is easier to add everyone in at the start than include them later.  The path of least resistance has always been a friend of mine.

Here's today's Ichthyomancy pick table:
