Friday MLB Best Bet (+28120): An Astros, Rockies, Cardinals, Angels Longshot Home Run Parlay
Friday MLB Best Bet (+28120): Relying on Yordan Alvarez, Mike Trout, and More
Over the last two days, we've missed out on a +17263 parlay by a Brandon Drury homer and a +1350 ticket by one measly Tim Anderson total base. Pain.
While that does hurt, it means we're getting close -- one of these days we're going to hit big. Could it happen during tonight's loaded MLB slate? Why not?

Friday MLB Parlay: +28120 (Bet $100 to Win $28210)
Yordan Alvarez (Houston Astros) to Hit a HR: +280
Air Yordan has smashed five dongs in his last five games. He's already smashed 19 homers against right-handed pitching this season, and he sports a ridiculous .442 ISO against. Meanwhile, on the season, Luis Severino has ceded 2.0 homers per nine innings to lefty bats.
C.J. Cron (Colorado Rockies) to Hit a HR: +350
Cron has squared off against Dylan Bundy 19 times in his career, and he's taken him deep three times. Since 2018, righties have smashed a whopping 60 dingers off Bundy, good for 1.9 per nine innings. Cron is 20th in the league with a .250 ISO.
Nolan Arenado (St. Louis Cardinals) to Hit a HR: +420
Kyle Hendricks has been an absolute mess over the last two seasons. Since the start of 2021, he has a 4.95 ERA while surrendering 1.6 round-trippers per nine frames. Arenado, meanwhile, is quite familiar with the veteran righty, as he's faced him 36 times, homering three times against him.
Mike Trout (Los Angeles Angels) to Hit a HR: +235
We don't really need to justify a Mike Trout home run pick, but we can do it anyway. Trout has left the yard five times in his last seven games, and he's third in the majors with 17 homers against same-sided pitchers. Opposing him will be Chris Flexen, who has surrendered seven of his 10 homers to righty bats.
