We are continuing the week in Major League Baseball with a full 15-game slate on Wednesday. As usual, there are plenty of Wednesday afternoon games with plenty of teams set to travel for new series later in the week. Today's schedule is headlined by another Yankees-Red Sox showdown after New York prevailed in extra innings on Tuesday night. Meanwhile, the Brewers and Cardinals are colliding in a crucial National League Central contest at 7:45 pm ET on FS1.
Here is today's mega parlay:
For this parlay we are going with two favorites on the run line and one underdog on the money line. Let's break down each of the three legs one by one.
Mariners -1.5 over Padres (+145)
Luis Castillo, whom the Mariners acquired from Cincinnati prior to the trade deadline, will be toeing the rubber on Wednesday. He has been everything they had hoped for and then some. Since being acquired by Seattle, Castillo has a 2.70 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP. All 3 of his starts at T-Mobile Park have been outstanding, to the tune of a 1.83 ERA with a 0.84 WHIP. As for the Mariners’ offense, they scored 15 runs against the Braves in their previous series while taking 2 out of 3 games and were impressive even against Charlie Morton and Max Fried. San Diego is countering with Mike Clevinger, who has feasted on sub-.500 teams but has been far worse against tough opposition. Well, Seattle is tough opposition. Castillo and company should roll to a home win.
