Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Giants at Marlins (8/20)

The Marlins are once again in sweep avoidance mode.

The Marlins starting pitcher is Sergio Mitre.

The Giants have on tap Russ Ortiz.

Game time is 1:05 p.m.

Mitre has only faced the Giants once in his career and was victorious in that outing.  If he has his sinker working and the defense backs him up, he should do well.  Mitre is a good day game pitcher.

Ortiz, since his return from the DL, has had trouble going past 5 innings and also had problems with his command.  He has made only one start during the day this season and it ended up being a loss.

Ichthyomancy be loathing weekday day games.

Here's today's Ichthyomancy pick table:
