Shohei Ohtani has been dominant on the mound, allowing a single earned run in 24 innings while striking out 25 and allowing 12 hits. LA has played to the Under in three of his four starts. Both squads rank within the top eight in bullpen FIP, so a low-scoring game could be in store for a game with temperatures in the low 60s at Chavez Ravine. Ohtani won’t feature in today’s lineup. The Dodgers are still potent, but will be without their best hitter, and both starting middle infielders (Mookie Betts, Tommy Edman) are still on the IL.

Shohei Ohtani has been one of the best pitchers in the league through four starts, sporting a sterling 0.38 ERA. While it won’t be possible to maintain a number that low, his underlying metrics (2.01 xERA, 1.92 FIP) are tremendous. He notches strikeouts (27.2% K rate) and groundballs (55%) while limiting walks (6.5% BB rate) and hard contact (87th percentile barrel rate). He’ll give the Los Angeles Dodgers a leg up against a Miami Marlins team that has a 3-10 record on the road, including three consecutive losses.
