MLB 3-PACK - OVER
(MLB) Miami vs. Cincinnati,
Total: 8.50 | -106.00 Over
Result: Loss
The Miami Marlins have opened the week with three straight home losses to Atlanta, and things won't go any easier as they travel to Cincinnati for the opener of a four-game series Thursday night.

Reds righty Luis Castillo (6-12, 4.51 ERA) has posted a respectable 3.72 ERA at home and he is 3-0 with a 1.84 ERA in four career starts against Miami.

The Marlins hand the ball to right-hander Zach Thompson (2-5, 2.91 ERA) who's having an impressive rookie season, but he's been pitching better at home than on the road where he is 0-3 in five starts, with the Marlins losing each of those five games. In fact, their team record is 3-8 in Thompson's 11 starts overall.

The Reds are 7-1 SU and 5-3 against the runline as home favorites of -200 or more while the over is 6-2 in this spot. I fully expect the Reds' bats to come alive again following back-to-back one-run outings against the Cubs.

8* play on OVER.
