Miami Marlins vs Atlanta Braves Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 08/07/25
Marlins vs Braves Pickswise Expert Predictions
We’ve got your Miami Marlins vs. Atlanta Braves prediction right here as these two teams open a rare 5-game series on Thursday night. The Marlins have won 6 out of their last 10, and have been heating up offensively, averaging 5.5 runs per game over their last 6 games. The Braves, on the other hand, have struggled – winning just 3 of their last 10 and averaging only 4.2 runs per game in their last 6 games. When you look at the NL Wild Card standings, the Marlins still have a fighting chance at the postseason, sitting 6 games out. That makes this series that much more important for the Marlins as they look to take advantage of a slumping Atlanta team.
Taking the mound for the Marlins will be Eury Perez, who enters with a 4-3 record, 2.70 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP. For Atlanta, they’ll counter with Carlos Carrasco, who enters with a 2-2 record, 5.68 ERA, and a 1.53 WHIP. Miami holds the advantage in this matchup with Perez on the mound, but when it comes to the bullpen, it’s fair game. The Braves bullpen holds a 4.14 ERA this season, and the Marlins are slightly better at 3.99. At the end of the day, the Marlins have more to play for and have the advantage at the plate, and I think they’ll get to Carrasco early on in this matchup. Look for Perez to roll and for Miami to kick-start this 5-game series with a win, making them my best bet of the day.
