Trevor Rogers and Ian Anderson will start Friday’s Marlins vs. Braves game at Truist Park. Full lineups and game notes in here.

Welcome to Friday’s Marlins (18-24, +12 RD) vs. Braves (21-24, -13 RD) game thread.

It’s the opening game of a new series, which means we’ve got a special series preview article, free prop bets and an hour-long livestream with the Fish Stripes staff and special guests.

Our free Marlins prop bets contest has returned…with a few tweaks.

Marlins Game Notes

Marlins Starting Lineup

  1. 2B Jon Berti (183 wRC+ this season, career 102 wRC+)
  2. DH Garrett Cooper (114, 118)
  3. LF Jorge Soler (108, 111)
  4. 3B Joey Wendle (138, 105)
  5. 1B Jesús Aguilar (109, 113)
  6. RF Brian Anderson (132, 113)
  7. C Jacob Stallings (71, 86)

Pregame Roster Moves: Berti activated from injured list, Nick Fortes recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville, Avisaíl García (undisclosed reasons) placed on injured list

Per Don Mattingly, looks like Jazz could be back this weekend.

Without Avi (Mattingly hopeful it won’t be long), BA could be the guy in RF. With the return of Wendle and Berti, the positional versatility and flexibility is back.

Additional Notes: Wendle and Berti are back from a hamstring strain and COVID, respectively. García’s IL stint is presumed to be COVID-related…Rogers has made six career starts against the Braves. The Marlins have lost all six of them, though at least they were close games…The Marlins have not recorded any saves in May. This would be the first, full-length saveless month in franchise history if they don’t pick one up over the next five games. Who will be on the mound if a save opportunity presents itself? Your guess is as good as mine.

Braves Starting Lineup

  1. SS Dansby Swanson (116 wRC+ this season, career 90 wRC+)
  2. 2B Ozzie Albies (91, 106)
  3. LF Marcell Ozuna (85, 113)
  4. 3B Austin Riley (119, 115)
  5. C Travis d’Arnaud (97, 99)
  6. 1B Matt Olson (130, 132)
  7. DH William Contreras (204, 114)
  8. CF Adam Duvall (56, 95)
  9. RF Travis Demeritte (64, 63)

Notes: Contreras was recalled from Triple-A on April 28 and leads the majors with a .814 slugging percentage since then (min. 50 PA). Swanson’s been hot as well. This will be his second time starting in the leadoff spot in 2022…Former Marlins prospect Dylan Lee is back with the big league team. Good chance he pitches in relief at some point during this series…Ronald Acuña Jr. is battling a sore quad and is not expected to be available in any capacity tonight.
