The Colorado Rockies and Miami Marlins kick off an abbreviated Thursday betting card with an early Noon ET game at Marlins Park featuring pitchers Kyle Freeland and Braxton Garrett. Freeland is a much better pitcher away from Coors Field (3.00 ERA) and Garrett is a young pitcher struggling to find his groove in the big leagues. The Rockies have dropped the first two games in the series and Miami is hitting well, plating an average of eight runs over the two games. Get our Col/Mia prediction here!

The Philadelphia Phillies and San Diego Padres close out Thursday’s abbreviate MLB card with Ranger Suarez vs. Joe Musgrove. Musgrove has been nearly untouchable this season at Petco Park with a 1.41 ERA and 0.91 WHIP. Suarez has pedestrian numbers this season, but pitches better on the road with a 4-1 record.
