After getting swept by the Mets in Citi Field, the Phillies have returned the favor to the Braves, taking the first three games of the series. All eyes will be on Jesus Luzardo to complete the sweep, meanwhile the Braves will answer with stellar rookie Hurston Waldrep. It’s time to deliver a Same Game Parlay for our viewing pleasure. Let’s dive into my Braves vs Phillies Same Game Parlay picks at +300 odds at DraftKings Sportsbook. Be sure to check out all our MLB picks for EVERY GAME today.
Kyle Schwarber (PHI) 1+ Home Run (+200)
Phillies ML (-168)
Braves vs Phillies Same Game Parlay odds: +300
Kyle Schwarber (PHI) 1+ Home Run (+200)
Kyle Schwarber almost took on baseball immortality on Thursday Night. Facing off against a positional player with four home runs already hit in the game, Schwarber hit a pop fly to left field to conclude his stellar night. He saw his NL MVP odds drop from +1600 to +600 in a matter of three hours. He’ll look to continue that push tonight against Braves right-handed rookie Hurson Waldrep – #4 prospect in the Braves system that has yet to allow more than one earned run in any of his five starts.
Schwarber is looking to join Cal Raleigh as the only two players to hit 50 home runs thus far. MVP favorites Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge will soon follow, but Schwarber has a substantial lead in the RBI department. 23-year-old Waldrep has yet to allow a home run this season, but he was hit around hard in his last start versus a Marlins offense that got to him for eight hits but just one run. Look for Schwarber to welcome Waldrep to Philadelphia with a moonshot to right field.

Phillies ML (-168)
Our 2nd and final leg of our Braves-Phillies Same Game Parlay has us backing the Phillies on the moneyline. After the Phillies NL East lead dropped from seven to four games in three days, the Phillies answered with three straight wins of their own and can thank the Marlins for stealing two games versus the Mets thus far in their own series. They’ll look to hold ground tonight at home, where they are tied with the most wins in baseball with the Brewers. Jesus Luzardo was nearly unhittable in his last home start, striking out 12 batters against a fierce Mariners lineup. The Braves core has seen Luzardo a good bit – dating back to his days with the Marlins, but give me the better pitcher and team in front of a crowd they rally behind.
