MLB Parlay Picks for Thursday: Cash In With This Expert's +582 Parlay
Due to popular demand, we're adding an article at Oddschecker that consists of two parlays. I'm going to add two different parlays, one being a moneyline parlay and the other being a totals parlay in the MLB daily. You can always mix and match these parlays where you see the value! Head to the OddsChecker MLB Odds grid to see complete odds for every game today on the board.
MLB Parlay Picks (+394) (Bet $100 to win $394)
- Cubs (-135)
- Brewers (Game 1) (-205)
- White Sox -1.5 (-110)
The Reds will pitch Luis Cessa, who is allowing a ton of power from both sides of the plate. Chicago has had some legitimate power between Ian Happ, Franmil Reyes, and Cristopher Morel. On the other hand, the Cubs will pitch Adrian Sampson, and he's been much worse against righties. However, the Reds have been better with their left-handed hitting. Therefore, I'll grab the Cubs at -135.
Corbin Burnes hasn't earned a high strikeout rate recently. But now that he gets to take on the Giants, that rate should increase. On the other hand, Scott Alexander will get the call for the first game of the doubleheader for the Brewers. He's a lefty that will likely struggle against righties like Hunter Renfroe and Andrew McCutchen. I'll take my chances with Burnes and the Brewers in this one.
The White Sox will send an all-right-handed lineup to the plate against JP Sears, who has an xFIP over 5 in the last 30 days. On the other hand, Dylan Cease will pitch for the White Sox. He's trying to win the Cy Young in the American League and should put together another solid performance against the Athletics. I'll take the White Sox -1.5.
MLB Total Runs Parlay Picks (+582) (Bet $100 to win $582)
- Nationals vs. Cardinals Over 7.5 (-115)
- Marlins vs. Phillies Under 7 (-105)
- Twins vs. Yankees Under 7 (-115)
Josiah Gray will take the hill for the Nationals in today's afternoon game. He has a 6.30 xFIP in the last 30 days and has been allowing a ton of power from both sides of the plate in the last 30 days. Meanwhile, St. Louis is hitting a .185 ISO and wOBA of .349 with just 16.1% of strikeouts. The Cardinals should come to play today. On the other hand, the Cardinals will send out Adam Wainwright, who has a 3.58 xFIP in the last 30 days. He's still allowed 26.3% of line drives, and the Nationals have hit over 22% of line drives against righties. I'm on the over.
Sandy Alcantara is going to win the National League Cy Young. He'll take on the Phillies, who have a below-average ISO and wOBA against righties over the last 30 days. On the other hand, Kyle Gibson has struck out nearly 25% of batters in the previous 30 days and will pitch against a Marlins team that has struggled offensively all season long. I'm on the under in this one.
The Yankees looked good offensively in their two games yesterday. But I'm not ready to believe in all the hype yet. Sonny Gray will;l take the hill, and he's struck out 26% of batters in the last 30 days. The bottom portion of New York's order will strike out a ton. Meanwhile, Nestor Cortes will return to the mound. He'll take on a full lineup of righties, but the Twins still have 24.1% of strikeouts against lefties. I'll be on the under in this game as well.
