Sunday’s Best MLB Same Game Parlays & Bets
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Toronto Blue Jays at Philadelphia Phillies
- Leg 1: Phillies -1.5 (+122)
- Leg 2: Zack Wheeler Under 1.5 Earned Runs Allowed (+115)
Year after year, Zack Wheeler is a Cy Young candidate, and this season he is second in WHIP (0.902) and fourth in strikeout per nine (11.08). He's a heavy fastball pitcher, and the movement helps him keep it away from the hitter’s power zone. His opponent's hard hit percentage is in the 87th percentile, and his average exit velocity is in the 85th percentile.
He's going against the Blue Jays, where they are only batting .214 and .357 slugging against Wheeler. The Philles’ pitching has kept Toronto quiet to two total runs and five hits in each game in this series. Now they have to face the Phillies’ ace.
Parlay Odds: +226
New York Yankees at Boston Red Sox
- Leg 1: Yankees -1.5 (-115)
- Leg 2: Max Fried 2+ Earned Runs (-185)
- Leg 3: Yankees Over 4.5 Runs (-135)
Max Fried is continuing his potential Cy Young campaign as he leads the league with nine wins and is fourth with a 1.84 ERA. Location is key for someone like Fried, who isn't overpowering and has always been known to have great control and can keep the ball away from the hitter’s power zone.
The Yankees need to salvage one game to prevent being swept in a series for the first time this season. He's performed well at Fenway Park, winning both starts with a 3.00 ERA, and this lineup is hitting .222 with a 34.5% strikeout rate against Fried.
Parlay Odds: +264
San Diego Padres at Arizona Diamondbacks
- Leg 1: Padres Moneyline (+109)
- Leg 2: Under 8.5 Runs (-105)
- Leg 3: Diamondbacks Under 4.5 Runs (-130)
We are getting a breakout season from Nick Pivetta in Year 9 as he comes in with a 3.48 ERA. Inconsistency throughout his career has forced him to bounce from the rotation to the bullpen multiple times, but he’s only four wins away from tying his career high of ten and could finish with his first sub-4.00 ERA. He's still a heavy fastball pitcher, but we’re seeing better movement from the fastball, and hitters are batting .218 against the pitch, with a run value of +9.
He's had success against this Diamondback lineup, as they are hitting only .222 with three extra-base hits in 61 plate appearances. A dominant fly ball pitcher like Pivetta should do well in a ballpark allowing the fifth-fewest home runs.
Parlay Odds: +305
