MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Monday, June 3
May 31, 2024MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Sunday, June 2
May 31, 2024Last week, I relayed the fact that Saturday’s had been kind to our bankroll at Caesars Sportsbook for the duration of the baseball betting season. Then we immediately go out and lay an egg in the most recent installment of my MLB parlay picks. The White Sox started it all off getting out to an early 3-0 lead only to lose 5-3 and fail to exceed their 3.5-run team total. I’m still flabbergasted over the Phillies showing against Dakota Hudson. Sure, they won 8-4 and went over their 6-run team total, but all the damage was done in the ninth against the Rockies putrid bullpen. The day closed out with the Padres’ bats giving Dylan Cease next to nothing after the righty smashed his total outs prop but still took the loss after San Diego fell 4-1 and dropped the series to the Yankees. Here’s to opening the month of June back in the black – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

Chicago White Sox vs. Milwaukee Brewers MLB Same Game Parlay:
I’m a glutton for punishment and will get involved in a White Sox game for the second time over the last week. This time around however, I’ll pay up and back the Brew Crew who’ve gone out and won all four made starts by Robert Gasser who impressed the heck out of me last time out against the Cubs. While Chicago’s offense has struggled mightily throughout May, the left-hander was dominant racking up a season-high 7 K while tossing six shutout innings. The Southsiders offense is the worst in the game in averaging a paltry 2.8 runs per game, and it’s been even worse against southpaws whom they’re 5-7 against in averaging 2.5 runs per game.
That being said, Garrett Crochet looks to once again be in his early-season form having logged quality efforts in four of five May starts while only conceding 16 hits (2 HR) and 3 ER with a 38:5 K/BB ratio over 29 total innings. Milwaukee has been much more potent against right-handed pitching (#4), and has played to low scorers in seven of 12 instances against LHP. I’ll take the bullpens out of the equation and look for a pitcher’s duel with limited damage incurred early on.

San Diego Padres vs. Kansas City Royals MLB Same Game Parlay:
So I faded Alec Marsh in his turn at Minnesota earlier this week and came out a winner. Though the Twins managed to touch him up early, the right-hander still managed to log seven innings which came as quite a shock to me. The 7-inning effort proved to match his longest of the season. Still, his stuff is weak at best evidenced by his player page painted blue over at Pitcher List. That sets off warning signals to me entering his second start of the week against the Padres who, per Baseball Savant, possess a number of bats that rip the cover off the ball against 4-seamers. On top of that, San Diego has proven to be the third toughest team in the league to send down on strikes with it the owner of a 19.0% K rate. Marsh exceeded his K prop in three of his four May starts, but he’ll be up against in this one.
Same goes for Joe Musgrove who I expect to get peppered in this one running up against a Royals offense spearheaded by AL MVP Award frontrunner Bobby Witt Jr. The Friars right-hander has been serviceable since returning from the IL, but he’s failed to get a handle of his fastball and relied upon his curve and slider to get the job done. That won’t work in this spot versus a Kansas City offense that’s hammered both pitch types with reckless abandon. With each offense holding the overall advantage, we’ll look for runs to hit the board throughout the duration of the game.

Cincinnati Reds vs. Chicago Cubs MLB Same Game Parlay:
Hunter Greene looks to be taking steps towards being one of baseball’s elite arms for years to come. He just ran up against the Dodgers in his last two turns and lived to tell about it after only conceding nine hits (1 HR) and 3 ER with a 13:3 K/BB ratio over 12.1 combined innings. I get that LA’s bats have gone dark over the last few weeks, but Chicago’s have been dormant for the better part of the last month. As such, this looks to be another solid spot for the K artist to go deep and potentially cash in against the MLB odds for the fourth time this season. The righty has been at his best on the road in allowing 14 hits (1 HR) through 24.1 IP, and he’s the owner of a 2.70 ERA and .143 batting average against through two lifetime Wrigley Field starts.
The struggle has been real for Justin Steele who enters his seventh start of the baseball betting season still in search of his first win. That’s not to say the stuff hasn’t been there however with the lefty around his career rates in strikeouts (8.6/9) and walks (1.9 BB/9). The issue has been the long ball of which he’s served up 1.7 per nine innings after only allowing 0.7 and 0.6 over the last two seasons. He’s due some positive regression in that stat category moving forward, and Cincinnati has only launched 52 baseballs into the cheap seats (#20). Provided the wind isn’t howling out to the bleachers come Saturday night, look for a pitcher’s duel to play out between two of the NL Central’s top arms leading to limited run production.
