◆ Matchup preview

San Diego Padres at Miami Marlins (2026-07-24). Germán Márquez vs Ryan Gusto at loanDepot park.

Starters — Germán Márquez has a 5.24 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 44.2 innings, with 6.04 K/9, 4.43 BB/9, and 2.22 HR/9. His last three starts were 3.0 IP, 2 ER, 2 K, 2 BB; 4.0 IP, 3 ER, 4 K, 2 BB; and 5.0 IP, 0 ER, 4 K, 3 BB. The recent line shows uneven run prevention, and the trend is up. Ryan Gusto has a 4.70 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 30.2 innings, with 7.92 K/9, 2.93 BB/9, and 0.88 HR/9. His last three outings were 2.0 IP, 0 ER, 2 K, 0 BB; 2.1 IP, 1 ER, 2 K, 0 BB; and 2.0 IP, 0 ER, 1 K, 0 BB. He has limited hard damage better than Márquez, and the trend is down.

Teams — San Diego carries a .690 OPS with 426 runs scored, while Miami has a .732 OPS with 457 runs. The Padres have a .230 team average and are 4-6 over their last 10, while the Marlins have a .251 team average but are just 1-9 over their last 10. On the pitching side, San Diego owns a 4.25 team ERA and 1.34 WHIP, compared with Miami’s 4.05 ERA and 1.25 WHIP. Miami has the stronger full-season offensive and staff profile by these numbers, but its recent form has been poor. San Diego’s offense has been lighter overall, yet Miami’s recent skid keeps the matchup more balanced than the season-long split suggests.
