The Miami Marlins open their six-game West Coast swing tonight in San Francisco, kicking things off with the first of three against the Giants in Oracle Park. First pitch is scheduled for 9:45 p.m. EST.
Miami (31–45) is coming off a weekend series win over Atlanta, capped by a 5–3 victory on Sunday. Though still at the bottom of the NL East, the Marlins outscored the Braves 18-5 and will look to build momentum on the road, where they are 14–21 this season.
They'll face a Giants team (44–34) that has won three of its last four and sits second in the NL West. San Francisco beat Boston 9–5 on Sunday behind a four-run seventh inning.
Right-hander Cal Quantrill (3–7, 5.68 ERA) gets the start for Miami, while veteran Justin Verlander (0–4, 4.45) goes to the mound for San Francisco. Verlander is still searching for his first win of the year after giving up four runs in 4.2 innings in his last start, but he spent almost a month on the injury list for a sore pectoral muscle.

Marlins vs Giants Predictions and Picks
"I think it's time for Justin Verlander's first win of the season. He fanned six across 4.2 frames last Wednesday after missing a month due to an injury. Verlander has done a solid job over his previous seven starts, posting a 3.32 ERA and 4.65 FIP. On the other side, Cal Quantrill has gone 0-3 with a 4.74 ERA and .... hasn't gotten more than 15 outs since April, and the Marlins will probably have to lean on their shaky bullpen once more. Prediction: Giants." — Viktor Allenson, Winners and Whiners
"Giants pitcher Justin Verlander is getting back from paternity leave after just having a baby boy, so the Giants will be trying to get him a win. Miami starting pitcher Cal Quantrill hasn't been very successful on the road so far this season .... I see Rafael Devers having a good game and the Giants getting a nice win. Final Score Prediction: San Francisco Giants win 4-1." — Anthony Allen, Picks and Parlays
"Both of these teams come into this matchup after picking up a series win over the weekend, but San Francisco has had the much better season. The Giants are 25-14 at home this year, while the Marlins are 14-21 on the road. Miami has had a very tough season with their pitching staff, but Quantrill has been serviceable over his last five starts. The Giants are going with Verlander, who has allowed two earned runs in three of his last five starts, but this is just his second start since coming off of the IL. I don't love the pitching matchup here, but we can't take an over in a San Francisco night game. Back the under here." — David Racey, PickDawgz
