Oakland Athletics @ Miami Marlins: NRFI (-120)
The Oakland Athletics are simply a bad baseball team, and their 12-1 loss last night puts them at 12-48 on the season. Luis Arraez of the Marlins remained the hottest hitter in baseball after a 5-for-5 night and is now hitting .390 through 59 games. Betting a NRFI today is partially a fade on the A's and partially due to the pitching matchup. Oakland is dead last with 201 runs scored this season and have been scoreless in the 1st inning their last 5 games. To make things worse, Miami will send Sandy Alcantara to the mound, who's only allowed 1 run in the 1st inning through 11 starts.
