We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Sunday, including picks from the MLB and MLS. Two picks are taken from both the MLS and MLB and a winning ticket would give us a nice payout with odds of +1013 at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Let's break down each of these plays.
MLB: Toronto Blue Jays ML (-155) over Boston Red Sox, 1:35 pm ET
The Red Sox simply don't have the pitching staff to compete with the Yankees, Blue Jays, and Rays on a regular basis. That was put on full display in their last 2 games before the all-star break. New York dominated them by a combined score of 27-3.
They'll be starting a rookie in Brayan Bello, who just got his major league debut a little over 2 weeks ago. He's had 2 starts, both of which were losses to the Rays. Tampa put up 9 runs in 8.0 innings against him, a team more known for their pitching. Toronto, however, has one of the most potent 1 through 5 hitters in the league. With Rafael Devers now on the injured list, they should be able to out-score the Sox.
