#904 ASA PLAY ON Cincinnati Reds -155 over Miami Marlins, Friday at 7:10 PM ET - The Marlins have now lost 3 straight games and 8 of last 10. The Reds have won 6 of 10 games. Cincinnati starter Carson Spiers matches up well here as he is off a rare tough start where he was victimized by the home run ball. He allowed 3 homers in that start but this was after allowing only 1 in his first 31 innings this season. The young right-hander now gets to face a Marlins team that is one of the weakest hitting teams in the league and this includes being dead last in homers in the majors this season. This is a good match-up for Spiers and he will take advantage. The Marlins send Yonny Chirinos to the mound. He struggled after he went to the Braves last season from the Rays and now he has been shaky with Miami too. Chirinos has made 4 starts so far and opponents are hitting over .300 against him. Chirinos has been hit hard in 3 of his 4 starts and gave up 9 hits in 4 innings in his most recent road start. He faces a Reds team that has won 3 of 4 games and averaged scoring 8 runs per game during this stretch. Yes, we have to lay a price here but the Marlins are 14-30 on the road this season and, per all the above, that makes this a value at the reasonable price on this one. We are fading a team that loses nearly 70% of the time when on the road. The home team is the bet here. Lay it!
