Head-to-Head Record

Recent meetings:

  • Nationals swept Marlins 3 to 0 in early September, including a 10–5 win (Nunez with two homers) and a 15–7 offensive explosion.
    This gives Washington confidence, though Miami’s offense remains capable at home.
  • Experts heavily back the Marlins, with 80% consensus on the moneyline and 100% for the run line.
  • Nationals’ recent bullpen has performed well, with relievers posting strong ERAs since mid-August.
  • Washington’s offense has been red hot in recent games, led by Josh Bell and Dylan Crews.
  • Marlins historically strong at home but inconsistent in recent form—1-4 in their last 5 games against the spread.
  • Moneyline: Marlins (–118 to –129)
  • Run Line: Marlins –1.5
  • Total Runs: Over 8.5 runs

Nationals vs. Marlins Predicted Outcome

Jake Irvin’s regression and pro-offensive conditions tilt this matchup toward scoring. With Washington riding a wave of momentum—scoring in bunches recently—Miami’s home edge and stable form likely carry them past a Nationals team capable of a slugfest, but not enough to win. Expect a game that leans toward the over, with the Marlins edging out a close win, perhaps 6–4.
