MLB Premium Play 08/25: Miami Marlins @ Los Angeles Dodgers


MLB - 915 Miami Marlins @ 916 Los Angeles Dodgers

(Starting Pitchers: J. Johnson vs C. Kershaw)

On this great game with two good pitchers on the mount, I believe it will be the much superior offense of the Dodgers to make the difference in here. Miami will start their ace Johnson tonight and he is coming from an outing in Colorado, where he threw 119 pitches. He has been very solid lately, but he has been getting no run support whatsoever, so I believe he may be in danger of a big letdown tonight against a Dodgers offense who just keep getting better and better, especially now with Adrian Gonzalez making his debut tonight.

On the other hand, Kershaw will start tonight for the Dodgers and he has been likely the best pitcher in the league lately. With his dominant pitching, he won't have problems with the poor Marlins offense, something that will put Johnson in tremendous pressure on the other side. I expect Kershaw to completely dominate the Marlins, while Johnson won't be able to handle the powerful Dodgers lineup for the whole game, allowing some runs that will be enough for the Dodgers having a comfortable win tonight. Therefore, I'll be taking the Dodgers in here.
