MLB Same Game Parlay Odds & Picks: Dodgers vs. Brewers

• Leg 1: Andrew Heaney Over 6.5 K’s (+122)
• Leg 2: Corbin Burnes Over 7.5 K’s (-108)
• Leg 3: Under 7.5 (-115)

With Corbin Burnes on the mound for the Brewers, expectations are that this game goes under the total. Burnes has a 3,23 xFIP in the last 30 days and has struck out over 31.1% of batters faced in that time period.

Burnes has also induced 51% of ground balls while only allowing 13.7% of line drives when balls are batted into play. He’s putting together another Cy Young caliber season.

On the other hand, Andrew Heaney will take the ball for the Dodgers. He has a 4.08 xFIP in the last 30 days while striking out 28.4% of batters faced.

Heaney has rarely given up hard contact and will go up against a Brewers lineup that has struck out 26.7% of the time against lefties in the last 30 days. Milwaukee has lacked power against lefties and has a wOBA of .257 in the last month with their projected lineup against lefties.

Obviously, the Dodgers have the better lineup, but good pitching always beats good hitting in this game. I’m riding with the under in this one to finish off the parlay.

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.
