For the second time in as many days, my MLB parlay picks were impacted by Mother Nature and starting pitching scratches/pushbacks. Ultimately, we only had action on three of seven recommended parlay legs and ended up 1-2 taking home a slight loss at BetMGM Sportsbook. Jordan Hicks’ start was moved up to Saturday which took the first five innings under and the over of his K prop off the board. It was a good thing too considering his former team plated 5 ER against him through five innings of which he amassed one total strikeout. Sonny Gray continued his fantastic campaign by tossing seven innings of 1 ER ball which saw the under of his 1.5 ER prop cash in. We only had action on Jake Irvin and Ezequiel Tovar to hit a home run in the Nationals/Rockies matchup later in the day due to Austin Gomber’s start being pushed back to Tuesday – we banked on it! Let’s add more profit to the bottom line and close the week out with style – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

San Diego Padres vs. Boston Red Sox MLB Same Game Parlay:

I’m not jumping off the Tanner Houck money train until the negative regression monster pays the right-hander a visit. So far so good with Boston coming out victorious against the baseball betting odds in each of his last seven turns and logging multiple run victories in four of those triumphs. While his 3.20 ERA for the month of June is a run-plus higher than it was for the previous month, much of that has to do with Alex Cora extending his starts a bit more than he should have. Case in point; last time out against the Jays when he had no business coming out for the seventh inning after logging 103 pitches against Toronto in his previous start.

Still, the output has been exceptional with the righty only allowing 22 hits (1 HR) and 9 ER with a 26:3 K/BB ratio over his last 25.1 innings of work. San Diego has been snake bitten by the injury bug recently with Fernando Tatis Jr. joining Luis Campusano and Xander Bogaerts on the IL taking yet another potent bat out of the lineup. While Matt Waldron has also been exceptional throughout the month of June pitching to a 1.95 ERA against some rough opponents like the D’backs, Mets, and Phillies, Boston’s offense has been on a heater since the tail end of May which has seen the club catapult itself back into the AL wild Card race. Should this one come down to the pens, the Red Sox are owners of MLB’s best unit over the last two weeks. With that, I’m fading Waldron and expecting Houck to remain in the thick of the AL Cy Young Award race by leading the BoSox to an eighth straight win in just as many starts.

RED SOX OVER TEAM TOTAL
WALDRON OVER EARNED RUNS
HOUCK OVER OUTS

Chicago Cubs vs. Milwaukee Brewers MLB Same Game Parlay:

It’s been a miserable experience being a Cubs fan as the calendar turns to July. The move to Craig Counsell in the offseason was expected to put a surge into a team that for all intents and purposes failed to live up to expectations under David Ross’ watch. The team currently sits 37-43 (-$819) and in last place of the NL Central 10-games in back of Milwaukee. That being said, the overall record is eerily reminiscent to the one last year’s squad possessed at this time before catching fire only to flame out when it mattered most the tail end of the baseball betting season. Could this three-game set in Miller be the springboard that finally raises this sinking ship up from the depths of the sea?

Going by the tough luck Justin Steele has endured throughout the month of June, naysayers would say it isn’t likely. Over his last five starts, the righty has allowed 25 hits (2 HR) and 6 ER while racking up a tidy 34:9 K/BB ratio. You’d think at least one win would’ve been tallied throughout that dominance, but that hasn’t been the case. In fact, he only has one loss to show for his effort regardless of each start being of quality. If anyone was in line for some positive regression in the W/L department from the baseball gods, it would be none other than No. 35 who last tossed seven innings of shutout ball at the Brew Crew back on May 27.

Milwaukee has cashed in against the closing MLB odds four of the seven times it’s squared off against its hated rivals to the south. Two of those defeats occurred with Freddy Peralta on the bump. Even so, he still performed admirably limiting Chicago to six hits and 4 ER while racking up a 16:8 K/BB ratio over 10.2 total innings. The righty has however been his worst at home (4.74 ERA) as well as in games played under the sun (5.63 ERA), and his last few starts have been extremely erratic with the fastball failing to get the job done. Look for his wildness to offer up just enough that allows for the visitors to hand him his fifth loss of the season.
