With another busy slate of games across the Majors, I've found more value in my MLB same-game parlay predictions.
Gerrit Cole will dominate the Detroit Tigers, while Hunter Brown will miss some more bats against the Toronto Blue Jays. I'm also eyeing the St. Louis Cardinals to jump on Merrill Kelly early, while Andre Pallante deals.

Yankees at Tigers SGP: Cole leads Yankees to victory
Gerrit Cole takes the hill for the New York Yankees tonight, and he's been holding his own. The right-hander has a 3.29 xERA over his last two starts, and he's held opponents to a 27.6% hard hit rate during that span. He's also cashed the Under in earned runs allowed in back-to-back outings.
On the other side, Framber Valdez takes the ball for the Detroit Tigers, and he has been struggling. The lefty has a 4.85 FIP over the last month, and he's given up a 40% hard hit rate across his previous two appearances. Most notably, Valdez's FIP sits at 5.72 at home compared to 3.52 on the road.
Jose Caballero is one of the Yankees' hitters I expect to jump on Valdez. He has a .388 wOBA across his last six games and has a hit in five of his last six.

Astros at Blue Jays SGP: Alvarez keeps raking
Yordan Alvarez has been one of the best hitters in the big leagues this season, and he continues to crush. The slugger owns a ridiculous 68.4% hard hit rate and 26.3% barrel rate over the last week. He has three extra-base hits in his last six games, and Alvarez has cashed the Over in total bases in two of his last four.
Hunter Brown returned from the IL last week and was solid, allowing just one run while striking out seven. While it's not a large sample size, Brown has cashed the Over in Ks in all three outings this season, and he's averaging 13.2 K/9. The Toronto Blue Jays do not strike out a ton, but with a modest total of 5.5, there's value in the Over.
George Springer is in the midst of a three-game hitting streak, and he sports a .471 wOBA in his last five games and a .368 average. Springer's 38.9% hard hit rate during that span adds fuel to this pick.

Diamondbacks at Cardinals SGP: Pallante tosses another gem
The St. Louis Cardinals send Andre Pallante to the mound tonight, and he's been brilliant lately. He sports a 2.57 xERA over his last two outings, and the righty has cashed the Under in earned runs allowed in three straight.
The Arizona Diamondbacks, meanwhile, counter with the struggling Merrill Kelly. He owns a 5.31 FIP over his previous two outings, and home runs have been an issue over the last month, giving up 2.20 per nine innings. After scoring 16 runs on Sunday, the Cards should jump on him.
Expect Alec Burleson to be one of those hitters who thrive. The slugger has cashed the Over in total bases in two straight games, and he owns a .414 xwOBA in his last six contests.
