Best MLB Parlay Picks Today (Back Max Scherzer, Walker Buehler, Shane Bieber to Lead Teams to Wins)
By Peter Dewey
We've got a short slate in Major League Baseball on Monday, but there may be some value in parlaying a few picks with several aces in action.
Every day at BetSided, one of our editors looks to put together an MLB parlay to bet for that day's action. While parlays aren't going to make you a profitable sports bettor, they can be really fun to root for throughout a day full of baseball.
Here are three picks that I’m looking to parlay on Monday, April 25, with all odds via WynnBET Sportsbook:
Best MLB Parlay Picks Today (+413 Odds)
- New York Mets Moneyline (-140)
- Cleveland Guardians Moneyline (-105)
- Los Angeles Dodgers Moneyline (-188)
New York Mets Moneyline vs. St. Louis Cardinals (-140)
The New York Mets and St. Louis Cardinals are the No. 2 and No. 3 teams in baseball on the run line this season, but I think there is value in New York as a road favorite in this game.
The Mets are sending Max Scherzer to the mound on Monday, and while he is facing a formidable opponent in Miles Mikolas, this St. Louis team has struggled a bit on offense as of late.
The Cards scored just one run in a loss to the lowly Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, and they are averaging just three runs per game over their last eight contests.
The Mets, on the other hand, are averaging 4.76 runs per game and are seventh in baseball in OPS. The Cards are 15th in OPS this season.
I give Scherzer the edge in this pitching matchup, and with the Cards’ offense sputtering, I like the Mets to get the win on Monday.
Cleveland Guardians Moneyline vs. Los Angeles Angels (-105)
You’re going to find a theme in these picks, as we are back yet another front-line starter in Shane Bieber for the Cleveland Guardians on Monday.
Bieber is taking on Michael Lorenzen, who allowed four runs in just 3.1 innings in his last start for the Los Angeles Angels, and I think the former Cy Young award winner can toss a gem against a tough Angels offense (third in MLB in OPS).
The Guardians have impressed to start the year, even though they are just 7-8, as they have a plus-13 run differential and have scored the fourth most runs in the American League. I like Bieber to lead them to a win tonight.
Los Angeles Dodgers Moneyline vs. Arizona Diamondbacks (-188)
This is the safest pick in this parlay, as the league’s best team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, takes on the 6-10 Arizona Diamondbacks.
Arizona has scored just 49 runs this season (fourth fewest in baseball), and it has to face another ace in Walker Buehler on Monday.
The Dodgers have the best team ERA in the league at 2.22, and they are third in baseball in OPS and first in runs per game. Arizona ranks 11th, 25th and 28th in those categories.
Don't’ overthink this with Buehler on the bump.
