Miami Marlins vs. Seattle Mariners Betting Analysis
Fish Food
Entering this series, the Marlins were one of the hottest teams in baseball. And they’ve still won seven out of their last 10, just like the NL East-leading Braves. But the Phillies have kept pace as well, winning eight in the same stretch. So after dropping the first two in the Pacific Northwest, Miami is only three-and-a-half up on Philadelphia when checking the MLB standings.
They’ve now lost consecutive games for the first time since May 21-23. And baseball’s leading hitter, Luis Arraez, is three outs away from a season-worst 0-15 skid when looking at MLB stats.
Mariner Momentum
These have been two of the more impressive Seattle Mariners games in back-to-back fashion in quite some time and got the M’s back to the .500 mark on the year. Kirby and Miller dazzled against Miami, setting the stage for Castillo who has had tremendous success against the fish in his career.
The former Red is 5-0 with a 2.08 ERA lifetime vs. the Marlins and comes in having fanned 26 batters over his last three starts.
Key Injuries
This will mark the final time these two clubs meet up this season. Unless they face off in the World Series. In their win on Tuesday, the Mariners got zero hits from their 1-4 hitters, but six hits and all nine RBI from their 7-8-9 hitters.
Miami Marlins vs. Seattle Mariners Betting Preview
Moneyline: According to the MLB odds, the Mariners are the moneyline favorites (-188) on Wednesday night. Meanwhile, Miami is a +153 underdog.

Miami Marlins vs. Seattle Mariners Betting Prediction
Perez should not be overlooked in this game, despite all the evidence pointing towards a dominating performance from his counterpart, Castillo. The Marlins’ 20-year-old phenom has only surrendered one earned run in 15 interleague innings, all in his three most recent starts.
The Miami Marlins standings continue to look impressive, and they’re gonna need a lift on getaway day today. Momentum is on the home team, but we’re expecting a duel on the mound and, thus, a low-scoring affair as we deliver our Marlins vs Mariners betting pick.
- MLB Pick: Under 7 runs
