Seattle Mariners
(-110/-110)-270
As both teams prepare to clash on April 25, 2025, at T-Mobile Park, the Seattle Mariners will look to build on their positive momentum against the Miami Marlins. Currently sitting at 14-11, the Mariners are enjoying a solid stretch of baseball, while the Marlins, with an 11-13 record, are struggling to find their rhythm this season.
In their last outing, the Mariners exhibited their offensive firepower, leaving fans excited about their potential as they gear up for this matchup. Seattle is projected to start Logan Gilbert, who has shown excellent form with a 2.63 ERA, ranking him as the 16th best starting pitcher in MLB according to advanced metrics. His ability to maintain an impressive strikeout rate of 8.1 projected strikeouts per game could be crucial in neutralizing Miami’s hitters.
On the other side, the Marlins will counter with Cal Quantrill, whose struggles continue to plague him this season. With an ERA of 8.31 and projections indicating he’ll likely pitch just 5.0 innings, the Mariners’ high-strikeout offense could capitalize on his low strikeout rate and high walk tendencies, further tilting the odds in Seattle’s favor.
While both teams have underwhelming bullpens, ranking 28th and 29th in the league respectively, the Mariners’ offense stands out. With a 10th overall ranking, bolstered by their 6th place in home runs, they pose a significant threat to the Marlins, who rank 23rd in that category.
The game total sits low at 7.5 runs, reflecting the potential mismatch on the mound. Despite the Mariners being heavy favorites with a moneyline of -255, the matchup leans heavily in favor of Seattle, indicating a strong opportunity for betting value. Overall, this contest promises plenty of excitement as the Mariners aim to solidify their competitive edge against the struggling Marlins.
