Sunday’s Best MLB Same Game Parlay Bets: Braves vs. Pirates
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Braves vs. Pirates
- Leg 1: Braves -1.5 (-135)
- Leg 2: Chris Sale 8+ Strikeouts (-150)
- Leg 3: Pirates Under 2.5 Runs (+120)
After a brutal start to the season, it looks like we're getting Cy Young-winning caliber Chris Sale back. He's been great recently with a 1.96 ERA in his last four starts. He still has one of the best sliders in the league, but now he's getting better with his secondary pitches. He can get the swings and misses with the whiff rate in the 88th percentile and chase rate in the 91st percentile.
The Pirates’ offense may have trouble with Sale's ability to get hitters to swing and miss. Their whiff rate is 19th and they also struggle against lefties, as their batting average is 23rd (.217).
Parlay Odds: +538
