The Miami Marlins will play the last installment of their four-game series against the Cincinnati Reds in Great American Ball Park, Cincinnati, on Sunday, August 22, 2021, at 1:10 PM (EDT). Cincinnati improved to 68-57 on the year, passing the Padres for the second wild-card berth in the National League, by winning its first three matches and covering the run line in all 3. To this stage in the year, Cincinnati’s offensive efficiency is a formidable one, hitting .252 as a club, good for fifth in the league, and producing 5.06 runs per game.

The Reds will start right-hander Vladimir Gutierrez, who saw little action in his first season but proves to be productive with an 8-4 overall record and 3.87 ERA. Gutierrez is returning from a strong start against the Cubs, pitching six innings and permitting two runs on 9 hits while striking out seven batters, but the Reds offense underperformed and fell 2-1.

Miami Marlins vs Cincinnati Reds Predictions 8/22/2021

Miami ranks at the bottom of the NL East, the league’s worst division, with a slim possibility of winning the playoffs. The Marlins offense struggled this season, and despite a surprise postseason appearance last year, they will not be in contention in the last month. Miami is batting .237 as a club, which ranks 22nd in the league, and has a scoring offense that averages just over four runs a game.

Sandy Alcantara will take the mound for the Marlins, and although only being 25, he is one of the league’s top young starters. Alcantara is 7-11 this season with a 3.39 ERA (18th in baseball among qualifying pitchers) and is returning from a strong start versus the Braves in which he pitched eight innings, giving only one run on five hits while striking out seven and walking just one batter.

The total went UNDER in 4 of Cincinnati’s previous 5 matches.
The total went UNDER in 4 of Cincinnati’s last 5 matches against Miami.
The Cincinnati Reds are 9-2 SU in their last 11 matches at home.

Miami Marlins vs Cincinnati Reds. The MLB pick for this game is the Cincinnati Reds. I prefer the Marlins as an underdog to capture this game because they are trying to avoid being wiped and are putting out their best pitcher, Alcantara. Despite their recent troubles and the fact that they are playing against a strong Reds club, Alcantara is dependable and consistent this season. As a young pitcher, Vladimir Gutierrez was also solid, but I’m going with the stronger arm that’s generating power. The Cincinnati Reds will win to a predicted score of 5-4.
