Result: Win
This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the Miami Marlins.

This is a mismatch of Titanic proportions on the mound this evening and we have no issues at all in laying the price. The visitors hand the ball to ace Jose Fernandez (11-4, 2.52 ERA) who after an uncharacteristically poor start vs. the Braves, would bounce back with a gem vs. the Reds on Friday, striking out eight and allowing one unearned run off six scattered hits over seven innings. He did not issue a walk. Fernandez closed the first half of the season inside the top six in the NL in wins, K's, ERA and WHIP. Note that Fernandez has been particularly tough in all "night" games this year, going 7-2 with a 2.12 ERA. The home side counters with the erratic Aaron Nola (5-8, 4.69) who owned a fantastic 2.65 ERA on June 5th, but who has since been a complete "gas can," inflating his ERA by more than two full runs after an extended stretch of ineptitude. And unfortunately for Nola, a date at home is not what the doctor ordered to get back on track as he's just 2-6 with a poor 5.28 ERA in Philadelphia so far this season. We expect Fernandez to be focused on the task at hand in his first start following the break and to easily outduel his volatile counterpart. Play on the MARLINS.
