BEST BETS: Wednesday's Best Bets For the MLB - August 23, 2023

MLB Best Bet Parlay For Wednesday, August 23

Wednesday MLB Parlay Analysis

San Francisco Giants vs. Philadelphia Phillies, 4:06 PM ET

LEG 1: Trea Turner 1+ Hit (-250) with Bet365

The First Leg of our Hit Parlay is our boy, Trea Turner. Coming off a wild walk-off single, Trea should be riding high in this matchup.

Turner now has a hit in 12 straight home games and he looks to continue that streak against Alex Cobb and the Giants.

Trea has seen Cobb 19 times, notching 4 hits, good for a .211 average. However, I am not too concerned about that. Cobb has been terrible on the road this season. He’s a pitch-to-contact guy that doesn’t K many batters.

Turner will have ample opportunities to bat in the 2 Spot. I have full confidence in Trea coming through once again for us.

Colorado Rockies vs. Tampa Bay Rays, 6:41 PM ET

LEG 2: Randy Arozarena 1+ Hit (-260) with Bet365

The 2nd Leg of the Parlay goes to Sir Randy Arozarena. Randy is coming off a 2 hit night last night, where he saw the ball really well, drawing 2 walks as well.

Today, he gets a great matchup vs. Austin Gomber. Randy is hitting .261 vs. Left Handed Pitchers (which Gomber is). Randy is also batting .268 at home, where he finds himself today.

Gomber is a pitcher who struggles to miss bats. That’s not a great recipe for success against Randy and the Rays. Randy is batting .381 over his last 7 days.

If he can’t get it done against Gomber, just wait for the bullpen to come in. This Rockies bullpen is atrocious. Just go look at yesterday’s box score if you don’t believe me.

Boston Red Sox vs Houston Astros, 8:11 PM ET

LEG 3: Jose Altuve 1+ Hit (-260) with Bet365

The Final Leg of this hit parlay is Jose Altuve. Altuve went hitless yesterday and the same outcome is unlikely to happen today. 

Altuve faces Chris Sale and the Red Sox at home. At home, Altuve is hitting .282 this season.

Jose has seen the Red Sox starter Chris Sale before and had success against him. Against Sale, Altuve is 10-34 hitting at a .294 average.

On the year, Altuve has seen lefties very well hitting .270. Even when Sale comes out, Altuve still gets to face a bottom 5 bullpen in August.

There should be plenty of hit opportunities for the Astros’ little leadoff man today!
