Miami went through a rough stretch in July and early August, but the Marlins are back on track, winning five of six to move into a Wild Card spot. Jorge Soler, Luis Arraez, and Josh Bell hit consecutive home runs in the eighth inning and the Marlins defeated Houston 5-1 Monday, and the Astros have lost three of five. Johnny Cueto goes tonight for Miami and he has yet to win a decision, but he had one of his best outings on Wednesday when he allowed three runs on five hits in five innings against Cincinnati. The Astros have lost three of Cristian Javier's past four starts although he hadn't gotten much run support in the losses. Javier has a 5.17 ERA on the road and he has allowed 36 runs in 54 innings since June 1. Take the Marlins on the runline.
