Miami can't get a break from the National League East. Every series with the exception of the three game set with the Rays has been against an NL East rival, and the Marlins are seeking consistency as they open the set on Tuesday night.
Pitching Matchup
PROJ ERA | FIP | ERA | MARLINS | PHILLIES | ERA | FIP | PROJ ERA |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
4.29 | 5.40 | 2.08 | Haren | Williams | 4.09 | 5.84 | 5.02 |
The Marlins' bullpen has been used a lot early and Miami is hoping Haren can turn in a quality start. He allowed two runs in seven innings in his last start against the Braves.
Jerome Williams allowed four earned runs over five innings in his last start against the Mets.
Lineups
Notes
-Can the Marlins get a series win? The club only has three victories at this point in 2015.
-How will Haren pitch?
-Does Mike Redmond's job depend on this series? Most likely not.
