The San Diego Padres and Miami Marlins face off on Saturday in a key MLB game at Petco Park. The Padres have won the first two games of this series.
Miami Marlins
The Marlins come into this game with a 12-13 record overall and their biggest issue all season has been with their inconsistency. Heading into Friday’s games the Marlins had lost five games in a row, and the offense has been a problem for this team.
The Marlins are averaging 3.96 runs per game while giving up 3.88 runs per game. The offense is ranked 18th best in the league while their pitching staff is ranked 12th, and they are going to need to find a way to get the offense going in this game. If the offense doesn’t start scoring more, the Marlins are going to fall out of contention soon. Jazz Chisholm has been the top player for the Marlins hitting four home runs and driving in 19 RBIs.
Getting the start for the Marlins is Pablo Lopez who sits with a 3-1 record and an ERA of 1.29. In his last start against the Diamondbacks he went 4.2 innings giving up six hits and four runs.
San Diego Padres
On the other side of this matchup is the San Diego Padres who sit with an 18-9 record and they have won three games in a row. The offense actually hasn’t been super strong heading into this game, but the pitching has really stepped up.
The Padres are averaging 4.65 runs per game while giving up 3.85 runs per game. The offense is ranked 7th best in the league while their pitching staff is ranked 10th. Manny Machado has been the top player hitting seven home runs and driving in 21 RBIs.
