MLB odds, lines, picks: Advanced computer model includes Giants in parlay for Thursday that would pay more than 16-1

The Seattle Mariners try to avenge a sweep at the hands of the Houston Astros when they meet Thursday as part of a 10-game MLB schedule. The Astros won three games in Seattle to kick off the season's second half, and the teams begin a four-game set at Minute Maid Park at 8:10 p.m. ET on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Guardians look to close out a three-game sweep of the Red Sox (7:10 p.m. ET) and the Orioles aim for a series win against AL East rival Tampa Bay (12:35 p.m. ET) in one of the two day games. Andrew Benintendi could make his Yankees debut against his former team, the Royals, at 7:05 p.m. ET.

Houston is the -140 favorite on the moneyline in the latest Mariners vs. Astros odds from Caesars Sportsbook. The Mariners are +118 underdogs, and the Over/Under for total runs scored is nine. With 10 games on the Thursday MLB schedule, there are plenty of opportunities for wagers, and you can cash in big if you combine your favorite picks in a parlay.
