We’ve got just 10 games on the MLB slate, including an afternoon showdown between the Giants and Phillies. I don’t have anything in that game, but I’ve added two Same-Game Parlays for other matchups in the later portion of the slate.

Monday’s Best MLB Same Game Parlay Bets
Here are our top two MLB same game parlay picks for Monday’s slate of baseball games. Both of our same game parlays are +400 odds or longer.

Milwaukee Brewers @ Kansas City Royals
- Leg 1: Vinnie Pasquantino Over 1.5 Total Bases (+115)
- Leg 2: Michael Massey Over .5 Hits (-195)
- Leg 3: MJ Melendez Over 1.5 Total Bases (+145)
Bryse Wilson will start for the Brewers tonight. He’s a righty who has struggled against lefties throughout his career. Wilson has already allowed a .355 ISO and wOBA of .381 this season, with only 23.8% of grounders induced.
Therefore, we’ll attack with the lefties in the Kansas City lineup.
Since last year, Vinnie Pasquantino has smashed a .211 ISO and wOBA of .337 against righties. More importantly, during that time, Pasquantino has struck out only 11.5% of the time against righties.
Meanwhile, Michael Massey has hit a .179 ISO and has only struck out 20.9% of the time. Massey doesn’t walk much against righties and is a bit more aggressive. That’s essential. If he can put the ball in play, he’s got a very good chance at delivering at least one hit.
Finally, MJ Melendez has hit a .186 ISO and wOBA of .321 against righties. He’s another lefty who has hit over 33% of fly balls against righties with 54.4% hard contact. Pasquantino and Melendez lead the Royals in hard-hit rate against righties and should smash against Wilson.
Parlay Odds: +611
New York Mets @ St. Louis Cardinals
- Leg 1: Brandon Nimmo Over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)
- Leg 2: Francisco Lindor Over 1.5 Total Bases (+110)
- Leg 3: Jeff McNeil Over .5 Hits (-250)
The Cardinals will start Kyle Gibson tonight. Gibson is a veteran righty who has allowed a .246 ISO and a wOBA of .326 to his first 80 lefties this season. Even last year, Gibson finished with a .194 ISO and a wOBA of .356 allowed to lefties. He also struck out just 17.9% of lefties.
The same is happening this year. Gibson has only struck out 18.8% of lefties and continues to allow a high rate of fly balls.
Meanwhile, lefties like Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Lindor are in great spots. Since last season, Nimmo has hit a .216 ISO and wOBA of .372 against righties. Lindor has hit a .178 ISO and wOBA of .323, which is also above average. Both lefties have struck out below 22% of the time against righties since last year.
Lastly, we’ll roll with Jeff McNeil to get a base hit. While his ISO and wOBA numbers are down, McNeil has only struck out 10.9% of the time against righties since last season. With Gibson not being a high strikeout pitcher, McNeil should at least put the ball in play most at-bats in this game. If he can do that, there’s a good chance one will be a hit.
Parlay Odds: +470
