Marlins Lineup
What if I told you back in March Jesse Winker would have more Home Runs than an entire Marlins starting lineup on June 16th ? I'll see myself out.

Notes: Miami’s two best hitters, Starling Marte and Jesús Aguilar, are both getting a breather. They’ll certainly be available to pinch-hit in the later innings if necessary...Our friends at FOCO released a new “Sandman” bobblehead yesterday. Supplies are limited...The well-rested pitchers available out of the Marlins bullpen (haven’t pitched in at least two days) are Anthony Bass, Adam Cimber, John Curtiss, Ross Detwiler, Dylan Floro, Luís Madero and Zach Pop.
Cardinals Lineup
- CF Dylan Carlson
- 1B Paul Goldschmidt
- LF Tyler O’Neill
- 3B Matt Carpenter
- C Yadier Molina
- 2B Edmundo Sosa
- SS Paul DeJong
- RF Jose Rondón
- RHP Johan Oviedo (2021 season stats: 5.72 ERA, 5.80 FIP, 19.5 K%, 33.7 HardHit% in 28.1 IP)
