San Francisco Giants -1.5 (+130) over Cincinnati Reds
The Reds have fallen on hard times of late, having dropped 6 of their last 10 games. They’ll now turn to Hunter Greene, who has struggled mightily in his own right since returning from injury. In just 2 games back, the young hard-thrower has pitched a combined 6.2 innings and given up a whopping 15 hits and 14 runs. It’s possible that Greene may not be 100 percent still, which could be the reason for his glaring struggles. Until he shows us that he’s feeling good and can pitch effectively, Greene is not someone to rely on against a quality opponent. Although his 5-5 record may not show it, Logan Webb holds a 2.48 home ERA through 90.2 innings pitched this season and he should be relieved to face a reeling Reds team after having just faced the Braves. Let’s back the Giants to pick up a massive win at home in decisive fashion.

Texas Rangers vs New York Mets Under 9 (-118)
In 24 starts in his rookie season, rookie sensation Kodai Senga has a 3.17 ERA with a 1.24 WHIP and a stunning 28.5% strikeout rate. The 30-year-old ranks in the 74th percentile in xBA, 82nd percentile in xSLG and 80th percentile in barrel rate among others in 136.2 innings. His only real downfall has been his walk rate, which is north of 11%, but he has managed to work around that and use his devastating forkball to get a lot of whiffs. Dane Dunning hasn’t been quite as stellar, but he’s still as consistent as ever. Dunning holds a 3.64 ERA with 39 strikeouts in 29.2 innings in August, while surrendering just 4 runs or less in 11 of his last 14 outings. Given the way both pitchers have been throwing, it’s hard to not back the under in this one.

San Diego Padres vs St. Louis Cardinals Over 9.5 (+102)
For the final leg of our mega parlay, we’re going with the over 9.5 in this NL matchup between the Padres and Cardinals. Once thought to be dangerous playoff teams, but squads here have massively underachieved this season, to the dismay of their fans. Starting pitching has been an issue, and it’s easy to get to an over in this Game with Rich Hill on the mound. The veteran left-hander has struggled mightily all season long, holding an xERA of 5.59 and sits within the bottom 10 percentile in xBA, xWOBA, chase rate and whiff percentage. Hill simply isn’t missing many bats and I don’t see that changing here.
On the other side, the Padres should tag Miles Mikolas in the first inning, and build on that momentum throughout. The right-hander has an xERA of 5.03 and sits in the bottom 10 percentile in xBA and strikeout percentage, which will not get it done at the MLB level. I’m expecting a high-scoring affair, as both pitchers can be counted on to perform at an average, or below average level.
