Free MLB Pick

Braxton Garrett other than an 11 run outing has pitched well in his eight starts allowing two or fewer runs in six of the outings. Kyle Freeland had been pitching well before getting blown up against the Rangers in his latest. He has some good back numbers against the Marlins and with two QS in three career starts. These two starters matched up last season in Miami in a 3-2 game that fell well short of the 9 run total.
Take the Under 11.
