MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Thursday, June 27
June 25, 2024NFL MVP Odds and Picks
June 25, 2024Last Wednesday’s parlay picks turned out to be a mixed bag, with all six legs splitting, resulting in a modest profit from Caesars Sportsbook. Seeing Tarik Skubal serve up seven hits, including two home runs, and four earned runs in just four innings was so surprising that I initially doubted the box score’s accuracy. Unfortunately, it was indeed true. However, Skubal managed to barely surpass his 6.5 K prop before exiting. Despite seven runs hitting the board in the first five innings, miraculously the game stayed under. Reynaldo Lopez fell short of his total outs prop due to allowing seven hits. In the night cap, Cole Ragans missed exceeding his strikeout prop by just one out, contributing to the Royals’ unexpected 5-1 loss as heavy favorites. The night did yield one success with Bobby Witt Jr., who went on to exceed his total bases prop. Here’s hoping for a better showing with this week’s Hump Day installment of same-game parlay picks – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

Seattle Mariners vs. Tampa Bay Rays MLB Same Game Parlay:
I can’t quit you Ryan Pepiot! Though the Rays’ right-hander failed to get the job done for us in the K department last time out against the Buccos, he still put Tampa Bay in a position to win the game by holding Pittsburgh to just three hits and 2 ER through his 3.1 innings of work. Walks proved to be his demise after issuing four on 74 total pitches thrown. The free passes have been an issue all year long with his walks per nine innings now up to a season-high 3.1. However, he’s still the owner of a 10.2 K/9 and his 4.22 FIP is slightly better than his 4.61 ERA.
The tools are all there for the right-hander to take it to the next level, and I fully expect him to shine in this start against a Mariners lineup that ranks out with the league’s absolute worst K rate (27.3%). That’s backed by a decent 8.9% walk rate (#8), but the M’s aren’t as good taking walks on the road (8.3%) as they are when at home (9.7%). Pep’s due some positive regression in his home digs, and I expect a healthy dose to occur early this afternoon as he rises up for what could play out to be a pitcher’s duel against George Kirby.

Toronto Blue Jays vs. Boston Red Sox MLB Same Game Parlay:
The same old song and dance remains within the AL East when it comes to the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox. The former is still on the decline and represents a team I’m looking to fade on the MLB odds, while the latter has continued its upward ascension to take hold of the third and final slot in the heavily contested AL Wild Card race. Now a comfy six-games over .500 and up $522 overall for MLB bettors, the Red Sox are the side I want action on in the finale of this three-game set that will likely have Toronto pressing the implode button looking to make mass deals come the trade deadline.
Kutter Crawford has gotten noticeably better with every passing month of the current baseball betting season. He’s gone at least six innings in each of his last five starts and enters No. 17 having allowed 14 hits (7 HR) and 8 ER with a 24:4 K/BB ratio over his last three stints against the Phillies, Yankees, and Reds. While not set to take the bump with his best splits, the Blue Jays offense continues to be a huge disappointment and enters this series having scored just 3.6 runs per game over the last week. I fully expect ample run support to be offered up in this spot with Rafael Devers and co set to run up against Yariel Rodriguez (5.94 ERA) and a Toronto bullpen that rates out as one of the worst in the Bigs (#24). Look for the home team to hang a crooked number and log the runaway win!
