Pitching Matchup
PROJ ERA | FIP | ERA | MARLINS | BRAVES | ERA | FIP | PROJ ERA |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
4.21 | 4.48 | 1.50 | Haren | Stults | 5.40 | 7.58 | 4.51 |
Dan Haren pitched well in his first start as a Marlin, tossing six innings against the Rays while allowing four hits and one run to complement a pair of strikeouts. He did not issue a walk, and appeared to have command of his offspeed pitches.
Stults pitched five innings in his first start of the 2015 season against the Mets, allowing three runs while walking one and striking out three.
Lineups
J.T. Realmuto gets the start behind the plate, with Ichiro seeing time in left field for the second consecutive day.
Notes
-Can Haren turn in a quality start? Miami has been forced to use the bullpen a lot early.
-How will the offense fare? Stults struggled his last time out.
-A series win? The Marlins are seeking their first series victory of the 2015 campaign.
