Miami Marlins Team Overview
Miami are in the midst of a prolonged slump and have already lost their winning season record. In their previous series, the team scored seven runs over three games and once again found themselves trailing early on. The home advantage no longer offsets the inconsistent performances of their starting pitchers. Against Wheeler, it's crucial for the hosts to capitalize on rare free bases, as mounting multiple extended rallies will be challenging.
