Marlins have the clear pitching advantages on paper. The lineups are about even IMO. Marlins defense is the wild card. If the Marlins defend well, they are clearly a better team then the Nationals. If not, they are about even. The bullpen still needs to settle down and niche their own roles.

My prediction: Marlins sweep the series and get back on track.
