Tigers vs. Mariners MLB Player Props Today: ALDS Game 2

Last Updated: October 5, 2025 12:51 PM EDT • 4 minute read X Social Google News Link

The Seattle Mariners are looking to tie up their ALDS matchup with the Detroit Tigers, and I’m breaking it down with my best Tigers vs. Mariners player props for the AL Divisional Series Game 2.
The Tigers are -130 moneyline favorites on the road with their ace on the mound, and they sit inside the top five in the World Series odds. First pitch is set for 8:03 p.m. ET from T-Mobile Park in Seattle (FS1).
My MLB picks for Game 2 include backing strong offensive outings from Parker Meadows and J.P. Crawford, and a quality start for Luis Castillo in a pivotal spot.

💰 Best player prop picks for Tigers vs. Mariners Game 2
Our MLB player prop odds tool shows the best odds for every market across legal sportsbooks in your area.
⬆️ Luis Castillo Over 15.5 outs recorded (+111) ⭐⭐⭐
Castillo completed seven innings in a regular-season home start against the Tigers. Detroit has posted a .571 OPS with only one home run and 39 strikeouts across 114 at-bats against right-handed pitching this postseason.
The hurler finished with a 2.70 ERA while holding opponents to a .192 batting average in 17 starts at T-Mobile Park this campaign.
A $10 bet on Castillo’s Over yields a profit of $11.10 at DraftKings. The +111 odds are getting an implied probability of 47.39%. I was happy to take this player prop at plus money, as it was being offered as short as -135 through BetMGM.
⬆️ Parker Meadows Over 0.5 hits (+105) ⭐⭐⭐
Meadows enters Game 2 on a three-game hitting streak after registering two hits in five at-bats (.400 average) with one RBI against Castillo in the regular season.
He put up relatively good results against fastballs and offspeed pitches this year, posting a .276 xBA when facing heaters and a .281 average against offspeed pitches. Castillo’s sinker allowed opponents to hit .310, while his changeup permitted a .294 average and a .472 xSLG.
A $10 wager on Meadows to record a hit would provide a profit of $10.50, leading to an implied probability of 48.78%.
Elsewhere on the Tigers' offense, our Mike Spector is eyeing Riley Greene in his best MLB home run predictions today.
⬆️ J.P. Crawford Over 0.5 hits (+100) ⭐⭐⭐
Crawford saw Tarik Skubal very well during the regular season while recording four hits in five at-bats. The Mariners' shortstop ranked inside the top 40 among all MLB hitters with an 81.9% regular-season contact rate.
The infielder was a better hitter on home field in 2025, posting a higher batting average, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage at T-Mobile Park.
A $10 winning wager on Crawford’s Over here would provide a profit of $10. The implied probability of the +100 odds is 50%. FanDuel was offering this prop at -110 odds.
