Miami Marlins

Marlins (12-16) VS Dodgers (19-10)

30 Apr 2025 | 3:10 PM ET | Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles

Los Angeles Dodgers
Moneyline Pick - Los Angeles Dodgers (-305): B+

Los Angeles enters this matchup on a tear, continuing its dominant form at home while Miami struggles through a rough stretch, losing four of its last five. The Marlins are notably short-handed on the mound, with key arms still sidelined, leaving them at a disadvantage against a lineup that’s consistently producing. The home team also has the edge in starting pitching, with a reliable veteran making his first start this season facing a Miami offense that hasn’t found much traction at Dodger Stadium.

While the odds are steep, they reflect the clear gap in momentum, depth, and overall execution between these two clubs. The value may be thin, but the play is reliable—backing Los Angeles to keep rolling at home is the smart move here.

Over/Under Pick - Over 9.5, (-110): B+

Power from the left side and a hot top of the order have helped keep Los Angeles' offense rolling as they host a Miami team that’s dropped four of its last five and continues to deal with injuries to key arms. The visiting bullpen, already taxed and hit hard in recent outings, now faces one of the league’s deepest lineups—one that’s known for wearing down pitchers by the middle innings. Even with some early-inning shakiness from the home starter in the past, the matchup sets up well for both offenses to contribute.

With both teams navigating inconsistencies and depth concerns on the mound, and warm weather in play, this afternoon tilt looks primed for scoring. The over 9.5 is the call, as all signs point to a game where runs could pile up early and often.

Spread Pick - Los Angeles Dodgers, -1.5 (-145): B

Los Angeles rolls into this matchup with momentum, leaning on a lineup that's making consistent hard contact and a rested bullpen that benefited from a deep outing earlier in the week. Miami, meanwhile, has dropped four straight and finds itself in a tough spot once again, turning to an inexperienced arm while still missing key rotation pieces. The visitors already struggled against this matchup earlier in the season, and they’ll now have to navigate a deep order that thrives in familiar home conditions.

Even with a few injury notes on the pitching side, the overall depth and rhythm of Los Angeles make them a strong candidate to cover the spread here. The price isn’t cheap, but the home side’s advantages across the board justify backing them in this spot.
