Miami Marlins vs Chicago Cubs Game Preview & Prediction

The Chicago Cubs will be hosting the Miami Marlins at Wrigley Field on April 20, 2024, in a National League matchup. The Cubs, with a record of 12-7, are having a great season, while the Marlins, with a record of 4-16, are struggling and having a terrible season. This game is the second of a double-header between the two teams, and it is the third game in the series overall.

The Cubs will have Shota Imanaga as their starting pitcher, a left-handed pitcher who has started three games this year. Imanaga has a win-loss record of 2-0 and an impressive ERA of 0.00, making him an excellent performer so far. However, Imanaga is bound to give up some runs at some point this year.

On the other hand, the Marlins will start Roddery Munoz, a right-handed pitcher. This is the MLB debut for Munoz, who is being called up from the minors to make this start. That will mean his ability to remain composed under the spotlight will be key to his success and the success of his team in this contest.

Quick Takes Miami Marlins:

Miami has a run differential of -40 so far this season, putting them in 28th out of 30 MLB teams in that category.

Quick Takes Chicago Cubs:

Shota Imanaga is striking out just over one batter per inning so far this season, which could mean a big strikeout total against a struggling Marlins lineup.

Marlins vs Cubs Prediction: Marlins 3.41 - Cubs 5.02
