MLB Same Game Parlay Odds & Picks: Cubs vs. Cardinals
- Leg 1: Cardinals -1.5 (-104)
- Leg 2: Albert Pujols to record an RBI (+135)
- Leg 3: Paul Goldschmidt to record 2+ bases (-105)
St. Louis has hit a switch, and this team has come alive. They were a playoff contender throughout the season, but they’ve been on fire in August, going 15-3 while leading the league and every offensive category.
The Cards acquired Jordan Montgomery during the deadline, and he’s played a significant role right away. He’s been untouchable, going 3-0 with a 0.54 ERA and hitters batting .203. Monty has already seen the Cubs this year with the Yankees and went seven innings in a win and should come away with another excellent performance.
Drew Smyly has pitched much better this month, going 2-0 with a 1.06 ERA in three starts, but those were against bottom-tier teams (Reds, Marlins, and Nationals). If you want to gauge where he’s at going against the hot offense of St. Louis, you have to look at his starts in July against the Dodgers, Giants, Mets, and Phillies, where he had a 6.06 ERA, and the Cubs went 1-3.

What are Player Props?
Player props refer to wagers that bettors can make based on player performance in a specific game. The majority of player props are built around the most common statistical benchmarks for a specific sport such as yards and touchdowns in football. Most player props are straight over/under plays that open at or near -110 and are adjusted based on where the money lands.
