Best MLB Parlay Picks Today: Will the Cubs Cold Bats Continue?

The Chicago Cubs dropped a series to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park over the week. The team was defeated 4-3 on a Sunday night walk-off single, and they must now travel to New York to face the Mets. 

The Cubs and Mets are evenly matched, but the pitching matchup should indicate limited offense. We’re taking the under in this contest and combining it with the Dodgers to win and the Athletics on the run line.

MLB Parlay Picks Today: Cubs vs. Mets (7:10 PM, EST)

Under 8 Runs (-122) at FanDuel

The Chicago Cubs' offensive performance at Fenway Park over the weekend was subpar. They scored a combined four runs in the series' final two games.

They were out of the series finale until a three-run homer in the eighth inning and were dominated by Tanner Houck in the first seven innings. Their slow offensive outings will continue against the Mets on Monday. 

Luis Severino will pitch for the Mets in New York. He is 2-2 with a 2.67 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. He has struck out 26 batters in 27 innings and allowed just two homers. 

The Cubs have won with the long ball, and Severino neutralizes this factor of their game. The other reason to take the under of eight runs is because Jameson Taillon will throw for Chicago, and he has been fantastic. 

Taillon is 2-0 with a 1.69 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP. Although he has only pitched 10.2 innings, he has pitched well, leading to his undefeated record. Two average offenses combined with strong pitchers should lead to an under, so take this as the first leg of the parlay.

MLB Parlay Picks Today: Dodgers vs. Diamondbacks (9:40 PM, EST)

Dodgers Moneyline (-148) at FanDuel

The Los Angeles Dodgers moneyline prices on FanDuel Sportsbook have been solid lately. This weekend, they were as short as -132 against the Blue Jays and won by ten runs. 

The Dodgers six game winning streak came to an end on Sunday against the Blue Jays. However, this team is still 18-12 and first in the National League West. Their -148 price against the Diamondbacks is fair, considering Tommy Henry has struggled for Arizona. 

Henry is 1-1 with a 5.55 ERA and a 1.60 WHIP. He has allowed 30 hits in 24.1 innings, four homers and nine walks. It hasn’t been an ideal start for Henry, and nothing comes easily against the Dodgers. 

James Paxton will pitch for Los Angeles. He is 2-0 with a 2.61 ERA. He has a walk issue, but he is tough to beat when he is locating. We believe he will have a strong outing against Arizona on Monday.

MLB Parlay Picks Today: Pirates vs. Athletics (9:40 PM, EST)

Athletics +1.5 (-210) at FanDuel

The Athletics have been experts at covering the run line and playing great baseball. Over the weekend, they took a three-game series from the Baltimore Orioles, winning two of three games. 

They have been competitive, which is remarkable considering they have the smallest payroll in baseball. Joe Boyle hasn’t been good for Oakland, with a 7.06 ERA and a 1.80 WHIP. However, he will face a Pirates team that is 9-8 on the road and has lost ten of its past thirteen games. 

If the Athletics can put the ball in play, they shouldn’t have much trouble covering against a cold Pirates team.

Bet on Athletics +1.5 at FanDuel
