We are continuing the first full week of the 2022 Major League Baseball season's proverbial second half with a 14-game slate on Wednesday. As is usually the case on hump day, there are plenty of afternoon specials on the schedule – this time nine, to be exact. The Yankees-Mets subway series headlines the action at 7:00 pm on ESPN, while the Mets' National League East rivals Atlanta and Philadelphia are getting the day started with a 12:35 pm showdown.
It's time to take a look at the three components of Wednesday's mega parlay.
For this parlay we are going with one favorite on the run line and two underdogs on the money line. Let's break down each of the three legs one by one.
Guardians ML over Red Sox (+115)
The Red Sox finally snapped their losing streak with a win on Monday night against the Guardians. It was a rough start to the second half of the season for Boston, as the team was outscored 41-13 prior to Tuesday night. For the third game of the series, the Red Sox will send Nathan Eovaldi to the hill and he was rocked in his last start against the Blue Jays. In just 2.2 innings he surrendered 9 runs on 8 hits and Toronto ended up scoring 28 runs in what was a massacre at Fenway Park. In his start before that, Eovaldi allowed 3 runs on 6 hits in 4.1 innings to the Yankees, which was his first outing since early June. Cal Quantrill will get the nod on Wednesday night for his second start of the season against the Red Sox. In the first one he allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 5.0 innings against a Red Sox offense that had Trevor Story and Rafael Devers. Neither of them will be in the lineup on Wednesday night.
