MLB Wild Card Same Game Parlay Picks & Predictions for Friday

Tampa Bay Rays vs. Cleveland Guardians

• Leg 1: Guardians ML (-118)
• Leg 2: Jose Ramirez to record 2+ total bases (+145)
• Leg 3: Shane McClanahan under 4.5 strikeouts (-104)

The Guardians are coming into this series as one of the hottest teams in baseball, as they finished 21-8 in September and broke away from the pack to claim the American League Central.

One of the key reasons has been the pitching staff, including Shane Bieber, who had a fantastic second half going 9-3 with a 2.48 ERA. In two starts this season against Tampa Bay, he allowed five earned in 13 innings with one win.

The Rays trended in the opposite direction and finished the season 14-19, going from the first Wild Card spot down to the third.

Shane McClanahan was considered an American League Cy Young front-runner earlier in the year but struggled towards the end and finished 2-5 with a 4.44 ERA. His last start against the Guardians was a disaster and went 4.1 innings and allowed five earned.

The Rays have a tough hill to climb, possibly playing three road games, and after a poor end to the season, it looks bleak. Take the hot team grabbing the first game.
