MLB Parlay Picks Today: Cardinals vs. Pirates (6:40 PM, EST)

Pirates Moneyline (-172) at FanDuel

The Pirates host the Cardinals in a crucial NL Central division matchup on Tuesday. St. Louis is 52-47 in second place, trailing Milwaukee by five games. Pittsburgh is right behind St. Louis at 50-49, with two games separating these teams. 

The Cardinals are starting Lance Lynn, who has been mediocre in 2024. He is 5-4 with a 4.39 ERA and has struck out 92 batters in 96.1 innings. In Lynn’s last seven games he is 3-1 with a 6.43 ERA. 

Skenes, who is 6-0 with a 1.90 ERA, toes the rubber for the Pirates. In just his rookie year, Skenes has been one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball. He has fanned 89 batters in 66.1 innings and has a WHIP of 0.92. 

In Skenes' first start against St. Louis this season, he went 6.1 innings, allowing no runs on five hits. We expect him to go deep into this game. 

Because of Skenes's dominance this season, the Pirates do not need much run support when he throws. Look for the Pirates' offense to scratch a few runs off Lynn and come out on top.

MLB Parlay Picks Today: Reds vs. Braves (7:20 PM, EST)

Braves Moneyline (-245) at FanDuel

The Reds take on the Braves in a matchup featuring the NL Cy Young front-runner, Chris Sale. Cincinnati is 47-53 in last place in the NL Central. Atlanta is 54-44 and in second place in the NL East, only trailing Philadelphia by 8.5 games. 

The Reds are going with Nick Lodolo, who is 8-3 with a 3.51 ERA. He has 89 strikeouts in 84.2 innings and has a WHIP of 1.12.

Chris Sale, who is 13-3 with a 2.70 ERA, will take the mound for the Braves. He has 140 strikeouts in 110 innings, which is fifth most in the league. Sale is looking to capture the NL Cy Young award, and he is the betting favorite at +110 on FanDuel sportsbook. 

We expect Sale to continue his Cy Young campaign and dominate the Reds’ hitters in this matchup.

MLB Parlay Picks Today: Angels vs. Mariners (9:40 PM, EST)

Mariners Moneyline (-180) at FanDuel

We are taking the Mariners moneyline with Logan Gilbert on the mound to close out our parlay. The Angels are 42-57, trailing the Mariners by ten games in the AL West. Seattle is 53-48, tied for first in this division with Houston. 

Los Angeles is going with Jose Soriano, who is 5-7 with a 3.71 ERA. He has 72 strikeouts in 87.1 innings and a 1.20 WHIP. In Soriano’s last seven games, he has been average, going 3-3 with a 4.17 ERA.

Logan Gilbert, who is 6-5 with a 2.79 ERA, takes the hill for Seattle. He has struck out 124 batters in 132.1 innings, the 17th best in 2024. Gilbert has a great pitching arsenal and is looking to dominate the second half of the season. 

The Mariners moneyline at -180 is a great parlay piece on Tuesday. We expect Gilbert to go deep into this game and shut down the Angels' offense to cash our parlay.
