The Marlins have pretty good numbers against Kyle Lohse who has an 8.00 ERA in his last two starts vs. the Marlins. What I like most is that the Marlins have seen him twice this spring. However, he's pitched well early in hte year and during this spring, but over the last 3 years he's got an 5.08 ERA on the road he's just not the same guy and this is a new ball park that's supposed to be pitcher friendly which is why I like the Marllins who have a lot to prove with all the acquisitions none bigger to me than Heath Bell.

Bell anchors this bullpen that was great early last year and came back to earth later. Marlins finished ahead of the Cardinals bullpen and to me they have a better overall bullpen for 2012. Josh Johnson will make the start and he's been throwing 96-98 in spring training and he's actually had a 2.11 ERA in April over the last 3 years combined so I'm not worried about him at all based on his spring training performance 15.1 IP 5 ER 17K's. Marlins should be pumped to open up their new ballpark tonight.
