Jake Odorizzi will start Tuesday against the Marlins

Atlanta waited until after Monday’s game to announce a starter and Brian Snitker confirmed that it would be Odorizzi in his postgame address.
Odorizzi has struggled since coming over from Houston at the trade deadline. He had a short leash in his last start in Washington where he allowed four hits, three walks and two runs (one earned) in 3 2⁄3 innings. Tuesday was Odorizzi’s normal spot in the rotation so it was somewhat notable that they waited to announce that he would start.
