Xavier Edwards (MIA) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-192)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

When the Miami Marlins host the Seattle Mariners, all eyes should be on Xavier Edwards and his recent struggles at the plate. Over the past month, Edwards has been swinging a bat that's more of a whisper than a roar, registering a disappointing average against right-handed pitchers. With the Mariners' starter on the mound, who boasts a solid strikeout rate and has been stingy with hits, you can expect the Marlins' offense to face some serious challenges. Moreover, Edwards' tendency to ground into double plays could limit his chances for extra bases. The Marlins lineup overall has shown inconsistency, especially against quality pitching, and with the pressure of home expectations, it's hard to envision Edwards reaching that 1.5 total bases mark tonight. Given these dynamics, leaning toward the under feels like a savvy move in this matchup.

Randy Arozarena (TBR) Under 1.5 Hits (-263)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Miami Marlins host the Seattle Mariners, all eyes will be on Randy Arozarena, but betting on him to go ‘Under 1.5 hits’ could be the savvy play here. Arozarena has been a bit inconsistent lately, struggling against right-handed pitching, and the Mariners’ Logan Gilbert has been nothing short of impressive on the mound. Gilbert has a solid strikeout rate and has kept hitters in check, boasting a WHIP under 1.20 this season. Moreover, Arozarena is facing a Marlins lineup that’s been hitting below league average at home, which could limit his opportunities. With the Mariners fighting for playoff positioning, expect Gilbert to come out firing, making it tough for Arozarena to find his rhythm. Considering the trends and the matchup dynamics, taking the ‘Under’ on Arozarena’s hits feels like a smart, strategic approach as he navigates the challenges of this game.

J.P. Crawford (SEA) Under 1.5 Total Bases (-172)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Seattle Mariners gear up to face the Miami Marlins, all eyes should be on J.P. Crawford, particularly when it comes to his total bases. Despite a solid season, Crawford has found himself struggling against right-handed pitching, hitting just .220 in away games against them. The Marlins’ starter is no slouch, either; with a 3.45 ERA at home, he’s been consistently effective at keeping hitters off balance. Recent trends also favor the under here. Crawford’s been held to under 1.5 total bases in five of his last eight games, and with Miami’s bullpen showing resilience late in games, opportunities for Crawford to capitalize dwindle. Given the Mariners' current road woes and Crawford's dip in form against righties, it seems the under on 1.5 total bases is a savvy play. Expect a low-scoring affair where Crawford struggles to make his mark.
