MLB Same Game Parlay Picks, Odds & Predictions – Saturday, July 13
July 11, 2024CFB Futures – 2024 Georgia Bulldogs Win Total Odds
July 15, 2024It was a frustrating close to the week for last Sunday’s MLB parlay picks. After cashing both legs of the same-game parlay in Colorado where the Royals, behind a sterling showing from Brady Singer, romped their way to a 10-1 win to salvage a game in Coors, the Mariners mucked it all up. And we were so darn close to cashing all three legs of that recommended parlay after Seattle took a 4-1 lead with it into the seventh inning. George Kirby came back out and only needed to log one out for us to cash in on his outs prop. Instead, he allowed the first two batters to reach base before getting pulled to come up an out short. Then, George Springer blasted one into the cheap seats to get Toronto over its team total. The BJs ended up winning the game in extras. Frustrating to go from a potential 5-0 sweep to a 2-3 showing and give some back to BetMGM Sportsbook. Let’s close the first half of the MLB betting season out strong – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

Cleveland Guardians vs. Tampa Bay Rays MLB Same Game Parlay:
I’m not exactly sure what’s happened to Ben Lively since the calendar turned to July, but I’m willing to give the right-hander the benefit of the doubt in the series finale with the Rays. That being said, I have no desire whatsoever to fade Ryan Pepiot as fantastic the fireballer has looked dating back to the end of June. Since then, the righty has thrown 15 innings of 4 ER ball without a home run allowed to the Mariners, Royals, or Yankees.
He’s hitting all the spots right now, and will be extremely tough for Jose Ramirez and Co. to figure out because of it. This one has all the makings of a solid pitcher’s duel with neither batting lineup seeing much of either starting pitcher. Lively has been most hittable away from Progressive Field (.257 BAA), but Tampa’s offense averages fewer than 4.0 runs per game (#26) and has launched the fifth fewest home runs (84). Pepiot’s allowed 37 hits (7 HR) and 26 ER through 51.1 innings thrown in the Trop. Look for the arms to dominate this one right from the jump.
- FULL GAME UNDER
- LIVELY UNDER EARNED RUNS
- PEPIOT OVER OUTS
Chicago Cubs vs. St. Louis Cardinals MLB Same Game Parlay:
Did the Cubs just churn out the series win that completely turns their season around? As a diehard Cubs fan, I sure hope so as tough a watch Chicago has been to this point of the baseball betting season. If in fact the team is finally going to start playing to its expected potential, it goes into Busch and at the very least takes two of three from the Cardinals. I forecast one of those ticket cashes against the MLB odds to occur in Sunday’s finale with a red hot Jameson Taillon set to square off against an also locked in Miles Mikolas.
The former has led Chicago to wins in three of his last four starts while giving the team at least six innings each of the last six times he took to the starting bump. The latter has seemingly hit a new gear in July only allowing 11 hits and 2 ER through 12.1 combined innings thrown at the Pirates and Nationals. I’m not buying it however. The righty’s stuff is weak and he’s already thrown at Chicago twice this season when the Cubs offense was struggling. After plating 21 runs through three games against O’s pitching, I got an inkling Ian Happ and Co. won’t be as easy to tame this time around!
- TAILLON TO EARN THE PITCHER WIN
- CUBS OVER TEAM TOTAL
- MIKOLAS OVER EARNED RUNS
Atlanta Braves vs. San Diego Padres MLB Same Game Parlay:
No better way to close Sunday’s parlay leg recommendations out then in a late afternoon tilt between the Braves and Padres with enormous wild-card ramifications on the line. Atlanta is currently the top rated wild-card entrant with San Diego sitting just on the outside looking in. Staff aces will collide in the finale with NL Cy Young Award frontrunner Chris Sale set to square off against what’s been a struggling Dylan Cease who will undoubtedly be looking to close out the first half strong. Sale tallied his twelfth win of the year earlier this week after tossing 5.1 innings of 2 ER ball at the D’backs to go along with 9 K.
However, it marked the third time in his last four starts that he went six innings or fewer. Could the southpaw be running out of steam heading into the All-Star break? I’m going to test that theory and look for the Friars to make him work with it only going down on strikes at a 16.8% clip against left-handed pitching (#2). With the strikeout possibly not made available to the left-hander and San Diego owners of an 8.6% walk rate versus LHP (#11), I’m banking on the Friars forcing him out of the game early and then taking it to a taxed Atlanta bullpen that’s been forced to eat a number of recent innings.

- CEASE OVER OUTS
