Another full MLB slate on Tuesday brings a number of intriguing matchups. And what better way to celebrate a full slate of baseball than by going for a big payday? That’s right, we’re back with another mega parlay with a payout of over 9/1 at DraftKings Sportsbook.

White Sox ML (+125)

Marlins -1.5 (+160)

Parlay odds: +916

Let’s break down each of the legs one by one.

Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing. 

Dodgers -1.5 (-125) over Reds

To start this mega parlay we have the Dodgers on the run line. While the Dodgers have struggled of late, it’s tough to fade them with Tony Gonsolin on the mound. Gonsolin has been nothing short of remarkable in 2022, posting an ERA of 1.42 through his first 12 outings. In fact, Gonsolin has not allowed more than 2 runs in his last 10 starts, while tossing 55 innings in that span. When he pitches, the Dodgers tend to win by a comfortable margin, and I expect that to be the case against the Reds.

Cincinnati continues to have a pretty terrible season all things considered, and while Tyler Mahle’s recent outings have been strong, they did come against the Diamondbacks and Nationals. Look for the beleaguered Dodgers offense to get back on track and take the series opener on the road.

White Sox ML (+125) over Blue Jays

For our next leg we have the White Sox on the money line. Chicago is a short home underdog, which I can’t understand seeing as Dylan Cease will get the start on Tuesday. Cease has not surrendered an earned run in his last 4 starts, and he’s been excellent in the vast majority of his outings this campaign. He’ll be opposed by Kevin Gausman, who is also having a strong season, despite a poor effort against the Orioles in his last outing. Both lineups have struggled and dealt with injuries early in the season, and that has impacted their performance. Neither team is hitting at their best at the moment, which leads me to believe this will be a close contest.

In a game that could easily be decided by 1-2 runs, I like Cease at a plus-money price at home. Back the White Sox to pick up a win as short underdogs.

Marlins -1.5 (+160) vs Rockies

For the final leg of this parlay, we have the Marlins on the run line. The Marlins are not a great team, or even a good one, but what they can do is pitch. Even outside of Sandy Alcantara and Pablo Lopez, the Fish have another young gem in the form of Daniel Castano. The left-hander has yet to allow an earned run through his first 11 innings pitched, with his last outing coming against a red-hot Phillies lineup. While the Rockies offense has performed well at home this season, Colorado is just 11-18 on the road for a reason. The Rockies’ lineup takes a noticeable dip away from Coors Field and Castano already presents a challenging matchup for Colorado. At this price, I like backing the Marlins to take the series opener at home.
