ARI Diamondbacks @ NY Mets · Money Line

NY Mets Win

Reasoning

Our Analysis

The Diamondbacks and Mets will wrap up a 3-game set at Citi Field this afternoon, with both teams aiming to secure a series win. The Mets are arguably one of the best teams in baseball this season, largely thanks to their elite pitching. Arizona has had a slow start to the season, but they’re still more than capable of producing runs in this matchup as they’re 4th in the league in OPS (.767). For today’s Mets vs Diamondbacks prediction, I’m leaning towards the home team.

One major edge for the Mets today is home-field advantage, as they’re 13-2 at Citi Field this season. Another advantage is on the mound, as Kodi Senga gets the start. Senga is 3-1 this season with a 1.26 ERA and in 28.2 innings pitched. Senga has struck out 25 and has given up just 1 home run. Zac Gallen has struggled all season and he’s set to take the mound for the Diamondbacks. Gallen is 1-4 with a 5.57 through 6 starts. In those 6 starts, Gallen has thrown for 32.1 innings and has given up 5 homers and walked 15.

The third advantage the Mets have today are their bats. The Mets are averaging 5.6 runs per game in their last 14 games with an OPS of .823. For the Diamondbacks, they’re slightly behind the Mets, averaging 5 runs per game in that span with an OPS of .733. Overall, the Mets have a huge pitching advantage in this matchup and I expect Gallen to fall behind early on and the Mets bullpen will shut down the Diamondbacks late in the game. Taking all of this into consideration, I’ll be backing the Mets on the money line as my best bet of the day.

WAS Nationals @ PHI Phillies · Run Line

PHI Phillies -1.5

Reasoning

Our Analysis

In this game, we will see the Washington Nationals take on the Philadelphia Phillies for the 6th time this year. So far, the Phillies are 5-1. They lost the 3rd game of the previous series against the Nationals, and Washington will be hoping for a similar result today as they are on a 3-game losing streak. On the other side, the Phillies are on a 4-game winning streak. Jumping into today, on the mound we will see Brad Lord of the Nationals and Taijuan Walker of the Phillies. Lord is a relief pitcher who has recently been used as a starter. In his 3 starts, he has pitched 12.1 innings, giving up 8 runs on 16 hits. His current record sits as 0-3 with the Nationals losing all 3 games by more than 1 run. Walker, on the other hand, has pitched great in 3 of his 5 starts. In his most recent start, he was pulled early after giving up 6 hits and 2 runs against the Cubs.

The batting statistics on the year for these teams have been very similar. The Nationals have a batting average of .240 with 131 runs on 254 hits, while the Phillies have a .251 batting average with 131 runs on 264 hits. Given the similarities in hitting, it forces us to put more emphasis on the pitching battle. The Nationals currently have the worst bullpen in the MLB when looking at the statistics of ERA, WHIP and earned runs. This is very concerning considering Lord is a relief pitcher who has pitched a total of 12.1 innings in 3 starts. Lord also pitched 1 inning against the Phillies this year where he gave up 1 hit and 2 walks before being pulled after 3 batters. Given the questionable pitching of the Nationals, the bounce-back spot for Walker and the momentum the Phillies bring into the game, I am rolling with Philadelphia to cover the run line.

Nationals vs Phillies prediction: Phillies -1.5 (+115) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.

BOS Red Sox @ TOR Blue Jays · Money Line

BOS Red Sox Win

Reasoning

Our Analysis

The Red Sox and Blue Jays meet again Thursday night in the second set of a key early-season series between AL East rivals. Boston enters the game looking to shake off a gut-wrenching loss from last night — a 6-0 lead squandered in extra innings despite a solid season debut from Lucas Giolito. The bullpen’s collapse was uncharacteristic, especially with some of their more reliable arms on the mound, but it underscores the inconsistency that has hurt the Red Sox in 2025. Now sitting at 17-15, Boston will try to rebound behind Tanner Houck, who despite a rough 7.58 ERA, has historically dominated Toronto’s lineup. In 114 combined at-bats, the Blue Jays are hitting just .202 against him, suggesting a potential bounce-back performance is on deck.

Toronto, meanwhile, is trending downward after a decent start to the year, dropping to 2 games under .500. Still, they’ve had Boston’s number so far, winning 4 of the 6 matchups between the teams. The Jays will send Jose Berrios to the hill, but his 5.94 ERA at Rogers Centre this season raises questions about his effectiveness, especially against a Red Sox lineup that’s shown the ability to score in bunches. This pick-em line also doesn’t make sense to me given Houck’s struggles and Toronto’s home-field advantage. With the Jays having a taxed bullpen after an extra-inning game last night, look for Boston’s bats to capitalize later, even if Berrios has a solid outing.

Red Sox vs Blue Jays prediction: Red Sox ML (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to -125.

What Is An MLB Parlay

A parlay bet is a single bet in which you combine multiple selections. In an MLB parlay you multiply the odds of each individual selection to calculate the parlay odds, so the potential to bet small and win big is great. Similar to an NHL Parlay, MLB Parlays do not have a traditional points spread market, with the run line usually set at +/- 1.5 runs, and the odds change rather than the line itself.

The most commonly wagered markets in MLB parlay bets are Run Lines and Money Lines and are often used to increase the odds when betting on a couple of favorites.

With multiple games played on any given game day, MLB parlays are a great way to have a wager and interest in multiple games on today’s slate.

Our experts analyze every game of the MLB season, leaving no stone unturned in trying to find the best opportunities and strongest selections to make up our MLB parlay bets, all of which can be found here on our MLB Parlay Bets page.

How To Bet On Our MLB Parlay Picks

Betting on MLB picks and parlays is a quick and simple process with any online sportsbook. To create a parlay, you simply have to add multiple selections into your bet slip and click the parlay option before placing your wager.

Comparing odds is always important when placing a wager, but none more so than when placing a parlay bet. In the age of an expanding online sportsbook industry, sportsbooks are eager to custom and display this by competing to provide the best odds across their sportsbook. This is great for the bettor as you can shop around to find the best odds before placing your wager.

In an MLB parlay bet where you may be combining three strong favorites, each at odds of -200 with one online sportsbook, your $100 wager would return $338 if another sportsbook has the same three selections at odds of -150, a marginal difference, but with parlay odds multiplying, the difference in the payout is noticeable, with this scenario returning $463 for a $100 wager, $125 more.

How To Win An MLB Parlay Bet

MLB parlay bets are increasingly popular but can be notoriously tough to land, with teams often splitting MLB series’ and The premise that anyone can beat anyone, on any given day.

So avoiding these potential pitfalls in adding selections to your MLB parlay is the toughest part. Our experts analyze everything from team form and news, matchups, weather conditions, and a wealth of player and team statistics ahead of making all of our MLB predictions to try best to reduce the chances of this.

Here are a couple of popular MLB parlay strategies used to try and increase the value of your odds with the aim of avoiding baseball’s variance and give yourself the best chance of turning a profit long term.

Parlaying large favorites – Straight wagers on large favorites offer bettors little value, a $100 wager on a -200 favorite will return just $150, a little reward for your risk. Combining two favorites at the same odds of -200 would see your same $100 stake would return $225, a more appealing return for your wager.
Home Favourite and Under – You can parlay the money line and run total in the same game and a large home favorite and the under is a popular choice amongst MLB parlay bettors. Home teams bat last in baseball, and when they have a lead, the game only goes 8.5 innings instead of 9, a plus for unders backers.

Our expert handicappers have a wealth of experience wagering on MLB parlay bets, with tried and tested strategies and analysis in hand, we provide the best free MLB parlay bets throughout the season.

How To Calculate MLB Parlay Odds

An MLB parlay bet is a single wager on multiple MLB Picks, with all selections needing to win for your ticket to cash. One of the main reasons sports bettors wager on MLB parlays is due to a large number of games, and an MLB parlay bet allows you to wager on multiple games at bigger odds than straight wagers.

One aspect of the parlay bet that can confuse sports bettors is the odds of an MLB parlay bet. Where some examples like NFL Parlays will comprise of selections such as Against The Spread or Totals, these are fixed odds of always around +110 or -110, and thus, the parlay odds stay fairly constant too with a 3-team NFL parlay around 6/1 or a 4-team parlay around 12/1.

With MLB parlays, the markets are often not fixed odds, instead, the run line is fixed at +/-1.5 runs or +/- 0.5 runs with the odds changing to reflect the matchup. Similarly, Moneyline odds, which are also common in MLB parlays, will differ depending on the matchup, so calculating parlay odds aren’t as simple.

To calculate parlay odds you must multiply the odds of each selection of the parlay, the easiest form of odds to do this with is decimal.

For Example

If you want to parlay three selections at odds of 3.0, 4.3, and 2.2 you simply multiply the odds of your selections and then by your stake to calculate your winnings.

3.0 x 4.3 x 2.2 = 28.38 odds

28.38 x $50 stake = $1,419 payout.

All online sportsbooks will calculate the parlay odds and potential payouts for your selections if you add them to your bet slip and click on the parlay tab.

Baseball Parlays – What Is An MLB Same Game Parlay

An MLB Same Game Parlay is the same as a regular MLB parlay, a multi-selection single bet, the difference being, the MLB Same Game Parlay sees all of the picks come from the same match rather than a selection from multiple different matches. The big positive of an MLB Same Game Parlay is that by combining multiple picks you can shoot for a bigger win on the game you’re watching or the team you root for, as like all parlays, the odds of your MLB Saem Game Parlay increase with each selection.

MLB Same Game Parlays also allow us to be strategic in our approach and knowing which picks to combine with one another. One of the most popular MLB Same Game Parlay strategies is to add correlated props and picks to the parlay. What we mean by correlated props is choosing picks that are in some way linked to each other, with the outcome of one pick likely to improve the chances of another. For Example, if you like a team in a particular spot because they have a favorable matchup against the starting pitcher, you might envision an easy win for the team in a high-scoring, high-action game. In this spot, you may look to parlay the team to win on the run line, or even an enhanced run spread, say -2.5 runs, along with a number of players to have 2+ hits, to score a run or hit a home run. By combing these picks, if you are right in your analysis that a team can score and cover -.2.5 runs, if they do, the batters will likely be registering plenty of hits and runs themselves.

As with any type of Parlay wager, the more selections you add to your MLB Same Game Parlay, the more difficult it is to win, but also that more the odds will increase. It’s a fine line between shooting for the stars and trying to seek out value in an MLB Parlay so adding 3 or 4 picks is usually a better option for your main play with a sprinkle play on a parlay with more selections than that.
