*Update - Giancarlo Stanton is out of the lineup for the Marlins today.
In matinee baseball action, the Miami Marlins will play host to the New York Mets, and they’ll look to make it eight straight wins with Jose Fernandez as the starter. Miami has one win over the Mets under their belt already this season with Fernandez as the starter.
The Mets will counter with a young stud of their own, as Matt Harvey will try to continue to turn the corner on a poor start to the season. At 4-7, Harvey has an ugly 5.37 ERA, but showed signs of bouncing back in his last start against the White Sox. Harvey allowed zero runs off two hits in 7.0 innings pitched on the way to a win.
Fernandez has done his best work in Miami this season as he sports a 5-1 record and 2.45 ERA along with 55 strikeouts in 36.2 innings pitched.
