Dodgers vs Rockies Picks and Prediction – 6/25/2025

The dominant Los Angeles Dodgers (48–31) invade Coors Field to face the struggling Colorado Rockies (18–60) under the mile-high Denver lights. Despite the late-night slot, MLB fans won’t miss this clash between a powerhouse contender and a cellar-dwelling team. First pitch is scheduled for 8:40 PM ET, and the backdrop of Coors could set the stage for an offensive showcase. Get in on the action with our free MLB picks.

The Rockies continue their dismal season at 18–60, including a shocking 8–29 record at home. Their starting rotation is in turmoil—German Márquez has struggled with a 6.11 ERA and recently allowed multiple runs in each of his last six starts. Offensively, Colorado remains anchored in the basement: a .228 team batting average and just 276 runs scored. Despite the thin air, they're unlikely to produce much against a high-powered Dodgers pitching staff.

The Dodgers enter riding a 7–2 surge and boast a flawless 7–0 record against Colorado in their last seven matchups. Starting is likely Emmet Sheehan, freshly activated from the injured list; he dazzled in his first outing, striking out six over four scoreless innings. Backing him is a deep lineup headlined by Will Smith (.328 avg, .425 OBP) and the dynamic Shohei Ohtani, bolstered by a bullpen that’s been solid late in games.

Expect another rout in the Rockies–Dodgers series. There is not a single statistic that should tell you a play on Colorado is worth it, other than a complete lotto ticket. With that logic, we will simply take the much better side and back the Dodgers to win this one by a score of 9-3.
