After nearly cashing all six leg recommendations the prior week, not a single one of my MLB parlay picks came through last Friday. The Orioles dropped the series opener with the Phillies by letting Ranger Suarez dominate their bats through 6.2 innings, while Kyle Bradish gave up a half-run more than his closing ER prop allowed us. The expected pitcher’s duel between Hunter Greene and Freddy Peralta played out as such through four innings, but then each hurler ran out of steam in the fifth and sixth respectively ultimately resulting in both strikeout artists failing to exceed their respective K props. Bad handicaps and tough luck saw us take the collar going into the weekend. Here’s to a much different result at BetMGM Sportsbook this time around – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

Tampa Bay Rays vs. Pittsburgh Pirates MLB Same Game Parlay:

Though the right-hander failed us miserably in his last start against the Braves only going 4.2 innings and logging his lowest strikeout tally since May 22, I’m going right back to the well with Ryan Pepiot in his 13^th start of the MLB betting season against the Buccos. Pittsburgh is a team I routinely target when fishing for strikeouts with it the owners of a collective 25.2% K rate overall (#28). Just this week, Nick Lodolo was able to exceed his 6.5 K prop at BetMGM for us with a mix of heat and off-speed stuff. That’s exactly what the Rays hurler brings to the table with the righty heavy reliant upon the 4-seamer, slider, and changeup to do damage.

If able to locate his fastball up in the zone, the Pirates will have all kinds of issues with Pepiot’s off-speed stuff considering they have very few bats that possess positive run values against each pitch type per Baseball Savant. As such, we’ll be riding the exact same two MLB odds positions taken last weekend in Atlanta.

RAYS MONEYLINE FIRST FIVE INNINGS
PEPIOT OVER STRIKEOUTS

Boston Red Sox vs. Cincinnati Reds MLB Same Game Parlay:

Don’t look now, but the Red Sox are making a move in the American League sitting 40-35 and only a single game back in the Wild Card chase after coming out winners in seven of the last eight times they walked between the lines. Included in that mix are series wins against the Phillies and Yankees at home followed by an impressive sweep of the Blue Jays north of the border. Kutter Crawford had his hand in one of those triumphs after tossing 12 combined innings of nine hits (4 HR) and 5 ER ball at Philadelphia and New York. He’s been at his absolute best on the road (2.62 ERA) and will be running up against a Reds outfit that’s seen its bats go cold over the last week in averaging a paltry 2.6 runs per game.

While Andrew Abbott has been a reliable arm within Cincy’s starting rotation having gone at least five innings in nine straight starts, he’ll be opposing a scorching hot BoSox lineup that’s ripped the cover off the ball to the tune of 6.4 runs per game over the last seven days. I expect both sides to dent the board in this one with Crawford serving up 1.0 HR per nine innings, but in the end, Boston will keep its hot streak intact.

Milwaukee Brewers vs. San Diego Padres MLB Same Game Parlay:

I got to take the 13^th start of Colin Rea in live last Sunday, and it amounted to being everything I expected to see from the right-hander. While he looked much bigger in person than he does on television, his stuff remained as vanilla as can be. Though he racked up 6 K to exceed his K prop, he was the benefactor of a cold Cincy lineup leaving a number of runners on base against him. If not for Elly De La Cruz, he would’ve likely only given up one run.

That being said, the Padres are in a rut right now having managed wins in just two of their last seven games while averaging a miniscule 3.3 runs per game during that stretch. On top of that, Dylan Cease has regressed terribly since putting forth a rock solid month of April. Once 3-1 with a 2.61 ERA, the right-hander is now 6-6 with a 3.95 ERA and has failed to go deeper than six innings in six of his last seven starts. On top of that, the Brew Crew does damage against the 4-seamer but absolutely tees off against the slider. Those are Cease’s most heavily used pitch types, so I don’t foresee this one ending well in start No. 16.
