MLB Same Game Parlay Odds & Picks: Cubs vs. Giants

• Leg 1: Chicago Cubs ML (+158)
• Leg 2: Under 7.5 (-118)
• Leg 3: Under 0.5 runs in the first inning (-148)

It’s been a rough July for Carlos Rodon as he comes in today with a 4.80 ERA for the month and a 2.75 FIP. He has a great fastball that he can reach into the upper 90s, but he’s been burned by it recently by allowing three home runs in his previous two starts. Today could be an opportunity to get right as the Cubs have struggled against lefties this season. They enter this game in the bottom 10 in AVG, OBP, BABIP, and strikeout rate.

The Cubs will counter with Adrian Sampson, and he’s coming off his best start of the season by going seven innings and allowing two earned in the win. He isn’t an overpowering pitcher, but he’s been excellent at inducing weak contact. His average exit velocity is in the 85 percentile, the same as his hard hit percentage, and the barrel percentage is in the 80th.

I also like Sampson to have an effective game, as the Giants have struggled by only scoring three runs per game in their last ten. I’m taking this pitching matchup in a low-scoring outcome.

What are Player Props?
Player props refer to wagers that bettors can make based on player performance in a specific game. The majority of player props are built around the most common statistical benchmarks for a specific sport such as yards and touchdowns in football. Most player props are straight over/under plays that open at or near -110 and are adjusted based on where the money lands.
