Sandy Alcantara Struggles Continue as Miami Marlins Face Strong LA Dodgers Lineup

Miami Marlins pitcher Sandy Alcantara has encountered some challenges in his recent outings following a strong start to the season. In his last two starts, Alcantara has allowed a total of nine runs, adding to the eight runs given up in his first three starts. It is important to note that Alcantara underwent Tommy John surgery a year ago and is still working towards reaching his peak performance level. He is set to face a formidable Los Angeles Dodgers lineup, which ranks second in the MLB for home runs per game and ninth in run differential. The Dodgers boast an impressive record of 12-3 at home this season and are predicted to emerge victorious in Tuesday night's game. Considering these factors, it is advisable to choose the Dodgers with the run line for this matchup.
