Prop Bets: Miami Marlins VS Philadelphia Phillies 2025-09-23
Phillies vs. Marlins: A One-Sided Laugher (With a Few Props to Bet On)
The Philadelphia Phillies (-215) are about to make the Miami Marlins wish they’d brought an umbrella and a sense of humor. Why? Because Cristopher Sánchez, the Phillies’ 13-5 ace, has a 1.20 ERA against the Marlins this season and a career 2.66 ERA overall. Miami’s offense? A sad joke, averaging just 4.1 runs per game and a laughable 4.63 ERA. Sánchez’s got a 1.20 ERA against them—so expect a shutout or a “Wait, did we even score?” moment.
Key Stats to Chuckle At:
- Phillies: 7th in MLB in runs (4.8/game), 3rd in batting average (.260), and 3rd in HRs (200).
- Marlins: 26th in HRs (151), 24th in strikeouts (8.1/game), and their starter, Edward Cabrera, has a 7.33 ERA.
Player Props to Bet On (Because Why Not?):
1. Sánchez’s Earned Runs Under 1.5 (+105): If Sánchez doesn’t pitch a shutout, I’ll eat my hat. The Marlins’ lineup is so weak, even their mascot could outslug them.
2. Luis Gil’s Strikeouts Under 5.5 (-133): Gil’s been a punchline this season (3.33 ERA, 7.3 K/9), so this is a lock. Bet on the under like it’s a sure thing.
3. Kyle Schwarber’s Total Bases Over 1.5 (-105): The Phillies’ slugger has a .312 September BA and 6 HRs this month. He’s not just a “total bases” guy—he’s a “I’ll hit a triple and laugh at you” guy.
Final Verdict:
The Phillies are 61.4% favorites for a reason. They’ve won 76% of games when favored this year. The Marlins? They’re 48.4% underdogs for a reason—they’re the MLB’s version of a group project that no one cares about.
Prediction: Phillies 5, Marlins 0. And no, the Marlins won’t score. Not even a run. Maybe a ground rule double if they’re lucky.
Place your bets, but don’t cry over Cabrera’s inevitable meltdown. 🎩⚾
