Free Betting Pick: Cincinnati Reds -160
The Cincinnati Reds have a proven pitcher in Sonny Gray on the mound while the Miami Marlins are starting the young Pablo Lopez who was roughed up in his latest start. The Cincinnati Reds may be one of the worst teams in the NL Central, but this is a team that still has talent as Joey Votto, Matt Kemp, and Eugenio Suarez are some of the top players at their respective positions. Miami is rebuilding which has shown in the early going of the season, but what concerns me the most is their bullpen as they have been a disaster in the early going. Final Score Prediction, Cincinnati Reds win, 6-4.
