Now it’s the Marlins pitcher Caleb Smith’s turn to try his hand at winning on the road to start a series in Philadelphia.
After splitting two games with the Cleveland Indians, the Marlins come back to familiar surroundings in the National League East against the Phillies and Aaron Nola. If Miami is going to try and make some kind of advance in the division, this would be a great place to start.
Smith has been one of the better pitchers in the National League this year and could become a Cy Young candidate with some continued power pitching and some luck from a lineup that is all but stagnant of clutch hitting.
