PHILADELPHIA – The Miami Marlins are 1.5-run underdogs in Game 1 of the National League Wild Card game with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Zack Wheeler (13-6, 3.61 ERA) will take the mound for the Phillies against Jesus Luzardo (10-9, 3.63 ERA) of the Miami Marlins. Wheeler recorded no-decisions in three starts against the Marlins but Miami won two of three games.

Meanwhile, Luzardo earned a win in both starts against the Phillies. The varying success of each starting pitcher would suggest Miami is the legal sports betting favorite, yet they have +132 odds to win Game 1.

Miami’s odds are longer to win in three games than two because of their pitching situation. Their ace Sandy Alcantara will miss the rest of the season with a UCL strain on his pitching arm.

The Marlins placed potential Game 3 starter Eury Perez on the 15-Day Injured List only 10 days ago with left hip soreness. Miami will likely call on Edward Cabrera (7-7, 4.24 ERA) if a Game 3 is necessary.

The likely absence of two top arms has legal MLB betting sites doubting the Marlins chances of advancing to the NL Divisional series against the Atlanta Braves.
