The Miami Marlins lost 99 games last year, and have made great strides with young and hungry players that play hard and make plays. Last night they beat St. Louis with their defense, with a myriad of spectacular plays in the field. The Marlins remain in Wild Card contention and will go with Jarred Cosart tonight, who owns a winning record on the season. St. Louis has ace Adam Wainwright on the hill, but the Cardinals have dropped four of six, and lost control of the #1 Wild Card spot in the NL in the process. The Marlins are just 4.5 games behind the St. Louis for the second Wild Card spot, and have had success vs. this team, owning a 3-1 series record on the season. The Cardinals are just 2-5 on the road in their last seven, and Miami is now 5-1 in their last six at home vs. a team with a winning record. Play on Miami.
