We were forced to deal with a couple of pitching changes with last Thursday’s MLB parlay picks, but still came out in the black by putting forth a 3-1 showing. If not for Shota Imanaga shockingly serving up a 2-run bomb in the seventh inning, we would’ve cashed all four after the lefty went on to crush his total outs recorded prop at Caesars Sportsbook. Dean Kremer was scratched in the Baltimore/Cleveland matchup, but that didn’t prevent the Guardians from cashing in on the moneyline behind another solid start from Ben Lively. Here’s to adding more to the bottom line with another assortment of MLB parlay legs for Thursday’s abbreviated slate – SLAM YOUR MAN!!

Reduced juice betting is one of the best ways for any sports bettor to save money and far too many people don’t take advantage of it. If you are not playing at a sportsbook that offers reduced juice betting then you are simply giving away money.

New York Mets vs. Colorado Rockies MLB Same Game Parlay:

This might be a tough position for some to stake on the MLB odds given the game is at Coors Field, but I expect runs to be hard to come by in the series finale between the Mets and Rockies. While David Peterson’s 7.1 K/9 and 4.1 BB/9 are far from impressive, he enters his 12th start with a 5-1 record and 3.47 ERA. Additionally, he has performed better away from Citi Field (3.15 ERA) and in day games, allowing only 20 hits (3 HR) and 8 ER with a 20:9 K/BB ratio over 20.1 innings. Colorado struggles against left-handed pitching, batting .232 overall (#24) and a league-worst .189 since July 1. In two career starts against the Rockies, Peterson is 1-1 with a 2.25 ERA and a 10:3 K/BB ratio. Colorado’s 6.7% walk rate versus lefties over the last five weeks (#26) should help limit the free passes.

New York has been much better against left-handed pitching, as evidenced by backing them earlier this series against Kyle Freeland. However, I’ve been impressed with what Austin Gomber has brought to the table this season, despite his 3-7 record. Pitching for a last-place team hasn’t helped his stats, but he’s logged quality starts in two of his last three outings at Coors Field, where he’s allowed 51 hits and 23 ER with a 34:13 K/BB ratio over 54 innings. Against the Mets, Gomber has a 16:5 K/BB ratio and a .148 batting average against through four career starts. Look for “good Gomber” to show up and keep this game of a low-scoring variety.

Los Angeles Angels vs. New York Yankees MLB Same Game Parlay:

With the Yankees rediscovering their mojo over the last ten days, I’m comfortable backing them as strong home favorites on the baseball betting odds against the hapless Angels. Currently tied for the division lead with the Orioles, the Bronx Bombers have a golden opportunity to gain some breathing room in the standings with the gift the baseball gods are about to hand over. Their next four series are against teams without winning records: the Angels, Rangers, White Sox, and Tigers. This stretch gives Aaron Boone’s squad a prime chance to solidify their postseason positioning if they play their cards right.

Marcus Stroman has been nothing to write home about to date, but he’s in a position to log a quality start, if not a win, against a struggling Los Angeles lineup. I expect him to bounce back after his rough outing against the Blue Jays, where he allowed eight hits and 7 ER in 2.2 innings. The showing was inexcusable coming off that showing against the Red Sox. Despite the performances, he should receive ample run support from a Yankees lineup that has been crushing left-handed pitching, batting .297 (#9), with a .405 OBP (#4), and a .952 OPS (#7) over the last 10 days. The negative regression of Tyler Anderson already started last Friday, and we were on board for that with the Mets. No reason to jump ship just yet!
