My Phillies vs Marlins Betting Preview, Prediction
Adam Mazur is back in our lives!
He was one of my favorite fades last season when he was a member of the San Diego Padres. He latched on with the Marlins and will draw a start tonight.
Mazur had an ugly 22:21 K:BB across eight appearances in 2024. He had a 13.9% K% supported by a 7% SwStr% and a 23.2% CSW%.
Mazur posted a 7.49 ERA in 33 2/3 innings; his xFIP and SIERA were both over 6.00.
Philadelphia has the seventhth-lowest K% vs. RHP over the past 30 days. The Phillies are top 10 in OPS, wOBA and wRC+ in that span.
Tonight’s projected lineup for the Phillies has combined for a 20.1% K% against right-handed pitching this season. Only six teams have a sub-20% strikeout rate vs. RHP for the year.
Pick: Adam Mazur Under 4.5 Strikeouts (-150, DraftKings)
