Friday MLB Parlay Analysis

Cleveland Guardians vs. Washington Nationals, 7:06 PM ET

LEG 1: Lane Thomas to Record a Hit (-190) with DraftKings

The first leg of our hit parlay involves Lane Thomas. With a high Over/Under, we should see some offense in this game.

Lane Thomas isn’t a household name, but he’s a sneaky-good hitter. At home, Thomas is hitting .333 in six games. On the year, he’s hitting .300 in 13 games. 

The Guardians are starting Cal Quantrill today. In both starts, Quantrill gave up plenty of hits.

Quantrill gave up seven and eight hits in both of his starts this season. There should be plenty of opportunities for Thomas at the plate. 

Even though Thomas hits at the bottom of the order, the Nationals are likely going to see nine innings of at-bats. It’s up to Lane Thomas to cash the first leg of this parlay.

Texas Rangers vs. Houston Astros, 8:11 PM ET

LEG 2: Alex Bregman to Record a Hit (-230) with DraftKings

In the battle of Texas, we love Bregman to record a hit. He faces a craft lefty in Martin Perez, but it doesn’t scare us away from him.

Martin Perez’s ERA might not be high, but it doesn’t mean he isn’t allowing hits. In his two starts, Perez has allowed five and eight hits. He was just fortunate his opponents didn’t turn them into more runs.

Even though Bregman’s season stats aren’t good, we expect this to be a get-right game for him. The season is early and Bregman is only batting .138 at home. 

For reference, Bregman hit .305 at home in 2022. Bregman is due some positive regression towards a higher batting average, and he will come through for us today.

Colorado Rockies vs. Seattle Mariners, 10:10 PM ET

LEG 3: Ty France To Record a Hit (-255) with DraftKings

The DimersBOT loves Ty France today and so do I, giving him to record a hit a solid 3% edge.

France is one of the best hitters in the league, so asking him to record a hit feels right. France is batting .357 this season. He’s not looking for extra base hits or home runs. He’s looking to get on base and score runs.

France has a hit in 12 of 13 games played this season. He will bat in the two-slot for the Mariners so he should see plenty of plate appearances even if the Mariners win this game and don’t have to bat in the bottom of the 9th.

Ty France will face the lefty Austin Gomber of the Rockies to start Friday’s contest.

France is 0-3 lifetime vs. Gomber, so he’s due. Gomber is not a great pitcher. He’s allowed 11 hits in 10.2 IP this season, along with 8 ER.

France is a singles machine. Today, that’s what we ask him for.

He’s likely the last leg of the parlay that we will be waiting on to celebrate. I’m predicting a first inning single to cash the parlay! Go get it done, Ty!
