August 22nd Baseball Parlay

My "have fun" parlay for today on BetRivers:

First 5 Total: Baltimore Orioles/Toronto Blue Jays Over 4.5 Runs (+102)

Both Yusei Kikuchi and Grayson Rodriguez have been red hot in recent months, but I like the fact that both teams got to see these guys earlier this month. The Jays got 3 of Rodriguez in that start, O's got 1 off Kikuchi. I need 5 tonight; I think that I can get it.

Atlanta Braves RL -1.5 (-109)

Home team RL bet, not my favorite. Braves are an exception to most rules since they lead the league in scoring. Tylor Megill goes for the Mets tonight with his juicy 5.53 ERA, 1.70 WHIP. Braves roughed him up for 6 runs over 5.1 earlier this month. He has an 8.20 ERA on road, 6.55 ERA vs. Atlanta. Bryce Elder is on the bump for Braves, excellent night splits with a 2.50 ERA, home ERA of 3.12. In the Braves I trust.

Bobby Miller Over 16.5 Outs Recorded (-110)

Miller has lasted 6 innings in 3 of his last 5 starts for Dodgers, Cleveland ranks 29th in OPS over the last 30 days which should help the pitch count. BallPark Pal gives Miller's top 3 pitches an A+ in tonight's matchup and his projecting 5.7 innings. That's enough for me to go over.

Have Fun Parlay Rules:

3 legs, +600 or more odds, 5% of a normal unit

Odds: +641

YTD 2-14 (down 0.28 units) - I would like to win again soon.
