Marlins vs. Giants Odds & Betting Predictions - September 1, 2024

Follow On X: https://x.com/PicksOffice The Miami Marlins have been quite good offensively of late, and one would not expect the Florida team to have a great problem going over 2.5 in this matchup against the San Francisco Giants. The Marlins are .600 over their five-game winning percentage, indicating the competitive level of the club. On the other hand, Giants have been struggling alongside, with a .400 winning percentage so far. The recent success of the Marlins can be penciled in directly to the way they generate runs, and against right-handed pitching is where they've really been potent. The Marlins average a whopping 7.28 runs scored per game in their last five against right-handers, showing just how potent they can be in those matchups. In that span, they have been very strong, receiving a .294 batting average against right-handers that not only speaks to consistent contact but how well they find themselves in position to score with great regularity. Not to mention, their .364 OBP against right-handed pitching further speaks to their ability to generate baserunners, in turn increasing the chances of scoring runs as a whole. There's also been some power hitting, with the Marlins hitting 9 home runs in their last five games to show the power needed to clear this relatively low team total. On the other hand, Giant's pitching has remained one of the big weak spots, especially against right-handed bats. The starters have allowed a high 6.04 ERA to right-handed hitters over their last five games, indicating problems in that area.
