June 21, 2024MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Tuesday, June 25
June 24, 2024Last Sunday’s MLB parlay picks will go down as some of the most memorable of the 2024 MLB betting season! Though we only ended up cashing three of the six parlay leg recommendations, two just so happened to be big money payoffs on the home run odds at BetMGM Sportsbook! Not only did Elly De La Cruz (+450) and Willy Adames (+320) leave the yard, but they did so with me and my family in attendance after we packed the SUV and headed to Milwaukee to take in the series finale between the Reds and Brew Crew. Even after losing both legs of the Guardians/Blue Jays same game parlay and pushing on the over at Miller Park, we still came out big winners for the day which brought back a bunch of units lost earlier in the week. Let’s add more profit to the bottom line and close the week out with style once again – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

San Francisco Giants vs. St. Louis Cardinals MLB Same Game Parlay:
Just when the Cardinals look like a team that can make a run and compete for division bragging rights with the rest of their NL Central brethren, they go out and lay an egg. It happened when they got hot towards the end of May only to drop six of 10 to the Phillies, Astros, and Rockies. After bouncing back and taking successive series from the Pirates and Cubs, they follow it up by dropping two of three in Miami. After playing the opener of this set with the Giants at Rickwood Field in a tribute to the Negro Leagues, the backdrop will return to Busch Stadium where the club stands 17-15 (-$21) overall with the under cashing in against the closing MLB odds 18 of 32 times.
The Redbirds have played to low scorers six of the seven times right-hander Sonny Gray threw in front of the hometown faithful, and I fully expect the vet to bring his “A” game to the yard for this afternoon’s finale against current San Francisco sticks he’s held to a .220 batting average and .343 on-base percentage over 59 total at-bats. He’s been at his best at home (1.55 ERA) as well as under the sun (2.19 ERA), and has recently been given a bit more leash evidenced by logging 7+ inning outings in his last two turns.
This will be a huge test for Jordan Hicks who will be making his first-ever start against the team he came up with before being traded to Toronto last season. The righty enters his sixteenth start 4-3 with a 2.82 ERA and 68:28 K/BB ratio while allowing 7.7 hits and 0.7 home runs per nine innings. He hasn’t been an innings eater, but I fully expect him to be way up for this one and exceed oddsmaker’s expectations by possibly pitching into the sixth inning. Either way, look for the starters to dominate early and set the tone for what likely results in a low scoring affair.
- FIRST FIVE INNINGS UNDER
- HICKS OVER STRIKEOUTS
- GRAY UNDER EARNED RUNS
Washington Nationals vs. Colorado Rockies MLB Same Game Parlay:
Jake Irvin has been nothing short of a masterclass on the road this baseball betting season in going 4-1 with a 2.55 ERA and .199 batting average against. He enters start No. 16 the owner of a 5-6 record and 3.24 ERA with only eight home runs allowed through 86 combined innings of work. However, the righty has served up 14 hits and 5 ER with a 7:5 K/BB ratio over his last two starts of which he allowed one ball to reach the cheap seats in each outing. That’s not the form you want to be in heading to the thin air of the Mile High City for his first-ever start in Coors Field. I expect him to give up some earned runs in this one and at least another bomb, so we’ll take a flier on the recently struggling Ezequiel Tovar to take him deep at a nice plus-money price.
Austin Gomber is an arm we’ve faded a number of times this season, and we’ll be going back to the well in the series finale when he toes the bump for the 15th time. The lefty stands 1-4 with a 4.36 ERA and has allowed 14 home runs through his 76.1 total innings of work. That equates to 1.7 long balls allowed through nine innings with seven allowed at home where he’s surprisingly limited opposing offenses to a .226 BAA over 35.1 innings pitched. Though Washington’s offense has cooled off over the last week in averaging 3.9 runs per game, current sticks on the Nats’ roster are batting .280 against Gomber over 25 at-bats. Lane Thomas has been all or nothing over the last seven days, but the righty has raked LHP to the tune of a .327 average and .948 OPS. Here’s to hoping he gets ahold of one and lets it fly!
- IRVIN OVER EARNED RUNS
- GOMBER UNDER OUTS
- LANE THOMAS OVER 0.5 HOME RUNS
- EZEQUIEL TOVAR OVER 0.5 HOME RUNS
