Seattle Mariners vs Miami Marlins Picks and Predictions April 25th 2025

Seattle Hopes to Stay Hot at Home

After a rocky 3-7 start to the season and key injuries to Victor Robles and Ryan Bliss, the Seattle Mariners have flipped the script heading into Friday night’s home series opener against the Miami Marlins.

The Mariners (14-10) are coming off a 6-3 road trip that included series wins in Cincinnati, Toronto, and Boston. They wrapped up the trek with a 4-3 victory over the Red Sox on Thursday behind six strong innings from Bryan Woo and a ninth save from Andres Munoz, who remains perfect on the year without allowing an earned run in 13 outings.

“It shows some resiliency and not getting too down or too up, honestly, after wins or losses,” Woo said about the team’s turnaround.

Mitch Garver added a key two-run double in Thursday’s win, part of a rejuvenated Seattle offense that has consistently bounced back after dropping series openers during the trip. The Mariners’ success at home, where they recently took five of six from Houston and Texas, bodes well for their upcoming set at T-Mobile Park.

Miami Looks to Keep New Talent Rolling

The Marlins (8-16) saw their modest three-game winning streak snapped with a 5-2 loss to Cincinnati on Wednesday. Despite the loss, Miami saw a bright spot in rookie catcher Agustin Ramirez, who has dazzled in his first MLB appearances, going 5-for-6 with three doubles in his initial starts.

“There’s real bat speed, there’s real impact,” Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said. “He’s firing at the right pitches.”

With injuries to both Nick Fortes and Rob Brantly, Ramirez’s emergence has been timely for Miami. However, the Marlins will need more from a pitching staff that has struggled early, especially as they face a surging Mariners lineup.

Friday’s Pitching Matchup

Seattle will send right-hander Logan Gilbert (1-1, 2.63 ERA) to the mound. Gilbert has dominated Miami in past meetings, posting a 2-0 record with a 0.66 ERA in two appearances.

The Marlins counter with Cal Quantrill (1-2, 8.31 ERA), who has battled command issues but has a 3.98 ERA in five career games (four starts) against Seattle. Miami will need a bounce-back outing from Quantrill if they hope to steal the opener.

With the Mariners finding their form and the Marlins still seeking consistency, Friday sets up as a key spot for bettors looking at MLB Picks Today.
