Marlins are Failing to Cash as Road Chalk

The Miami Marlins and Philadelphia Phillies are set to do battle in the City of Brotherly Love on Monday, where the Phillies will be looking to rebound from a one-hit performance in their previous outing against the New York Mets.

Shark Bites
  • The total has gone UNDER in nine of the Marlins' last 12 games with Jose Fernandez as the starting pitcher.
  • The Phillies are 0-5 SU in their last five games with Aaron Nola as the starting pitcher.
  • The Marlins are 1-4 SU in their last five games against the Phillies.

Jose Fernandez and Aaron Nola are slated to get the start for the Fish and Phils, respectively. Fernandez (11-4, 2.52 ERA) has collected 107 strikeouts in his last 11 starts (73.5 innings).

Nola (5-8, 4.69) limped into the All-Star break in the form of a 0-4 mark and 13.50 ERA in his last five starts. The 23-year-old had his most-recent scheduled start skipped in order to get his mental game back on track.

The Marlins are not exactly a reliable play when tabbed as chalk away from Florida. In their last 11 games as road favorites, Miami is a paltry 1-10.
