Saturday's MLB Best Same Game Parlays
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Chicago White Sox @ Philadelphia Phillies
- Leg 1: Phillies Over 5.5 Team Total Runs (+126)
- Leg 2: Phillies -1.5 (-140)
- Leg 3: Zack Wheeler Over 7.5 Strikeouts (-132)
There's usually one team every year that's almost historically bad, and the White Sox are the likely candidates. They have won just three games since the start of the season on March 28. To put it in perspective, the reigning Men's College Basketball National Champion UConn Huskies also have three wins in that same span, and their season ended on April 8. Michael Soroka has been atrocious this year and is below the tenth percentile in several metrics, including xERA, strikeout rate and whiff rate.
The Phillies have taken advantage of playing some bad teams recently, sweeping the Rockies and taking the first game against the White Sox. Zach Wheeler is 0-3, but that is not his fault, as he's getting an average of 1.25 runs of support per game.
That trend should change as the Phillies grabbed seven runs on Friday against the White Sox.
Parlay Odds: +581
Arizona Diamondbacks @ San Fransisco Giants
- Leg 1: Corbin Carroll Over 2+ Total Bases (+115)
- Leg 2: Diamondbacks Moneyline (-116)
- Leg 3: Zac Gallen Over 5.5 Strikeouts (-140)
The series is tied at one as we head into Saturday. It was all Diamondbacks on Friday night, as they went off for 17 runs. It hasn't been a great start for the reigning NL Champs. They are 10-11, but the good news is no one in the West has set themselves apart. Zac Gallen has been fantastic at the beginning of the season. He’s had two starts, going six scoreless, and his pitching run value is in the 92nd percentile.
San Fransisco came into Friday with an identical .246 average to Arizona and four fewer hits, but the huge difference is they've scored 22 fewer runs. As last night proved, the pitching is also struggling. They're 25th in ERA, but it's mostly come on the road. They are third in home ERA. Kyle Harrison is the Giants' top prospect, and he has three quality starts in his last four outings and delivers a high-velocity fastball with great movement.
Even though the rookie Harrison has been great, he’ll nearly have to be perfect going against Gallen, which you shouldn’t expect.
Parlay Odds: +586
Tampa Bay Rays @ New York Yankees
- Leg 1: Juan Soto To Record an RBI (+140)
- Leg 2: Over 8.5 (-102)
- Leg 3: Tampa Bay Rays Over 3.5 Runs (-138)
The Yankees got another big hit from Juan Soto to take the first game against Tampa Bay. With all the great hitters the Yankees have, they are only 14th in slugging and 11th in home run rate. Aaron Judge and Gleyber Torres are hitting under .200. The dominance comes from the pitching, as they're fifth in ERA. Nestor Cortez has been one of the outcasts in the rotation; he has had trouble finding that magic from the 2022 season. He has just one quality start this season, coming against the Marlins.
The Rays have treaded water to start the season as they deal with injuries and inefficiencies. They've pieced together a starting rotation until they get some pitchers back. Plus, some of their best hitters, like Yandy Diaz and Randy Arozarena, are starting slowly. Zach Efflin has also been inconsistent in his first four outings; he has two quality starts and two where he’s allowed five or more earned.
We saw a good amount of scoring in the last game, and both pitchers don't have the best track record against these lineups, so look for an offensive showdown.
Parlay Odds: +720
