This is a 1* FREE PLAY on the Marlins.

After falling here 11-2 yesterday, we're expecting the Marlins to bounce back and respond with their ace on the mound Tuesday.

Miami plays with the added incentive of having not won in Cincinnati since 2018. But we like Pablo Lopez in this matchup. He's 6-5 with a 3.14 ERA for the Marlins. He's playing with extra motivation as well after getting hit hard in his first start back from the break, allowing five runs over five innings in an 8-0 loss to the Rangers last week.

But Lopez has a great opportunity to get back into the winners circle facing the Reds' Hunter Greene, who is just 3-11 with a 5.78 ERA. Note that Greene leads the majors in home runs allowed with 23, and in his past five trips to the hill he's 0-4 with a 7.11 ERA and six homers allowed.

We think Lopez is the correct call here. Consider Miami on Tuesday night.

Good luck, NP
