We saw some exciting MLB games on Monday. Hopefully, we'll see more of the same (or better) today. Of course, a great way to make any game a bit more exciting is to get in on the action. With so many games and plenty of markets for each one, there is certainly not a shortage of options. The following are my top MLB same game parlays (SGPs) for Tuesday, July 28th.

Tuesday’s Best MLB Same Game Parlays
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Toronto Blue Jays vs. Washington Nationals
Leg #1: Under 8.5 Runs (+100)
I expected to like the over because of how well the Nationals have been hitting of late (.305 over the last week). But Washington, despite its success at the plate, has finished under its total in six of its last eight games. The under is 7-3 for Toronto in its last 10. Cade Cavalli has not allowed more than three runs in a game in his last eight starts.
After a rough start, Shane Bieber has allowed three runs total over his last three starts. This game could absolutely turn into a relatively low-scoring pitcher's duel.
Leg #2: Cade Cavalli Over 4.5 Strikeouts (+118)
Toronto hasn't done a ton of striking out lately (46 in the last six games), but Cade Cavalli has gone over this total in his last three starts and in five of his last six. That makes this prop at these odds a tremendous value play.
Leg #3: CJ Abrams to Record a Run (-115)
If Shane Bieber continues to throw as well as he has been lately, there will be few (if any) runs scored. But if someone is going to get on base and potentially score, it will be a player hitting .600 over the last week and who has recorded at least one run in seven consecutive games.
Parlay Odds: +724 - A $100 wager will result in an $824 payday; your stake plus $724 in winnings.
Boston Red Sox vs. Athletics
Leg #1: Jake Bennett Under 3.5 Strikeouts (+116)
Jake Bennett has not been a big strikeout pitcher. He is averaging 4.2 per start and has finished under this total in four games and recorded four in three others. The A's have not been striking out a lot, averaging just fewer than eight per game over the last week (39 in five games).
The only problem is that with the A's struggling at the plate recently, Bennett could go deep into the game, making it easier for him to hit the over.
Leg #2: Under 10.0 Runs (-115)
Jake Bennett hasn't allowed more than three runs in his last seven starts. Gage Jump hasn't been as good (five or more earned runs allowed in three of his last five starts), but he may not need to be against a Red Sox team hitting .227 over the last week.
Lwg #3: Ceddanne Rafaela 2+ Total Bases (-125)
Ceddanne Rafaela has gone over this total in seven of his last 11 games, but in only three of the last seven. However, while Gage Jump is a solid pitcher, Rafaela is too good a hitter not to break out of his mini-funk in hitter-friendly Sutter Health Park.
Parlay Odds: +724 - A $100 wager will result in an $824 payday; your stake plus $724 in winnings.
