This is a 10* play on the Miami Marlins.

The Fish are coming off a 2-2 split in a home series versus the Cubs, and they host the Mets in a new series starting Tuesday. Only a half game separates the two teams in the standings, but I like Miami in Game 1.

Dan Straily will toe the slab for Miami, and he's been great at home this season. The right-hander is 3-1 with a 2.17 ERA in eight starts at Marlins Park. He blanked the Mets, striking out five in 5 1/3 innings earlier this season.

The Mets hand the ball to Robert Gsellman, who hasn't missed many bats lately. Gsellman (5-5, 6.04 ERA) was torched for eight runs on nine hits over just 4 1/3 innings in a 12-0 loss to the Dodgers his last time out. He allowed seven runs on 11 hits in five innings in a home loss to Washington prior to that. He's also surrendered a whopping six home runs in his last two starts.

The Marlins are 13-4 in their last 17 home games.

Take MIA.

This is a 10* play on [email protected] to go UNDER the total.

The Padres rank dead last in the major leagues in scoring, as well as team batting average. San Diego will host Atlanta in Game 1 of a three game series Tuesday, and the under is 5-1-2 in Atlanta's last eight overall.

Jhoulys Chacin will toe the slab for San Diego, and he's been great at home. The right-hander is 4-1 with a 1.72 ERA in seven starts at PETCO. He allowed a pair of runs on five hits, striking out six in six innings in a loss to the Cubs his last time out.

The Braves hand the ball to rookie left-hander Sean Newcomb, who has been brilliant in three starts. He allowed one run on three hits over six innings in a win over the Giants his last time out.

The under is 9-2-1 in the Braves last 12 versus a team with a losing record.

Take UNDER.
