MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Friday, July 12
July 11, 2024MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Sunday, July 14
July 12, 2024It was a horrific showing all around for last Saturday’s MLB parlay picks from starters getting scratched on game day to losing plays by the slimmest of margins. Bryse Wilson was moved to the pen due to the arrival of Aaron Civale. His absence scratched the plays on the over and Dodgers team total leaving us with the Brewers team total and Paxton under outs prop of which we split. Then it was on to Coors where the Royals laid an egg against Austin Gomber who just might get traded to a contender after all if his recent showings are a sign of things to come. The night closed out with Seth Lugo coming a K short from going over his K prop. Good times! Here’s to getting back into the black over at Caesars Sportsbook with some Saturday MLB parlay leg recommendations – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

Texas Rangers vs. Houston Astros MLB Same Game Parlay:
We’ve been riding the Rangers all week and won’t stop now even after backing them in Friday’s series opener. Spoiler alert – you might want to think about placing a series bet on Texas before first pitch! It wouldn’t shock me in the least if Bruce Bochy’s troops were lined favorites to win this game anyway with Nathan Eovaldi set to square off against Spencer Arrighetti who has fallen off the map in recent starts. But before we get to breaking down his rough stretch, let’s first pay homage to Eovaldi who’s been nothing short of spectacular since the calendar turned to June. The right-hander threw at the Padres and Rays and only conceded five hits (1 HR) and 2 ER with a nifty 11:0 K/BB ratio going seven innings in each outing. Most impressive is that it only took him an average of 90 pitches to accrue 21 outs in each start!
The story hasn’t been nearly the same for the Astros’ righty who has been ripped for 13 hits (2 HR) and 8 ER with an 8:9 K/BB ratio over his last two starts at Toronto and Minnesota. The kid simply just doesn’t have the stuff to be a starting pitcher at the MLB level just yet evidenced by his 5.96 ERA, 1.662 WHIP, and 10.0 hits + 5.0 walks issued per nine innings. He showed a glimpse of being able to stick in the rotation throughout June, but one must take into account the caliber of opposition he threw at. The offenses of the Cardinals, Giants, Tigers, White Sox, and Rockies isn’t putting a scare in any opposing pitcher these days. Texas, save for conceding the finale in Anaheim on Wednesday, have been ripping the cover off the ball recently enough for me to believe they hang a crooked number in this redemption spot for Eovaldi whom Houston raked over the coals back in April.

Washington Nationals vs. Milwaukee Brewers MLB Same Game Parlay:
The luster of the Nats hot start for MLB bettors is starting to wear off with the team losers in four straight and five of the last six to fall 5.5-games back in the NL wild-card hunt. Fading the Brewers at home has been a recipe for disaster with Christian Yelich and Co. a moneymaking 27-14 as hosts ($772) and sitting 12-games over .500 when installed favorites on the MLB odds. Even so, I simply just can’t avoid taking a crack in this one with C.J Abrams and his mates set to stare back at Dallas Keuchel and his 4.61 ERA and 9:8 K/BB ratio through three made starts. I don’t know how it’s happened, but the Brew Crew has won all four of his starts regardless of the southpaw only amassing a total of 13.1 innings. The lefty utilizes the sinker and change with regularity, and those pitch types just so happen to be the two Washington has teed off on the most evidenced by a number of their sticks possessing lofty run values per Baseball Savant.
With the offense likely to get theirs right out of the chute, it will afford Mitchell Parker the breathing room needed to excel in his first career start at Miller Park. The lefty has had issues serving up the long ball (1.2/9), but the control has been there (5.1 BB%) and he’s gone at least six innings in three of his last four starts. With Peralta throwing in the opener and Rea closing the series out Sunday, this spot represents what I believe to be the Nats best shot at locking down a win. I’ll play it as such and hope the baseball gods prevent Keuchel from getting the job done with smoke and mirrors once again.
