MLB Betting Previews- Friday, April 27 Parlay
The 2012 MLB regular season kicks-off the month of May with most of the favorites holding true to form, but with a few still struggling out of the gate.
After poring through the stats for the matchups on Tuesday’s slate of games, we uncovered a two-team parlay that promises to get your week started-off on the right foot.
Game 1- Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Washington Nationals
Money Line: Arizona +110 Washington -130
Total Line: 7.5
Arizona will go with Trevor Cahill as its starter in this one. The right-hander has been struggling a bit with 1-2 start and an ERA of 3.70. He dropped his last two starts after giving-up eight earned runs in 11 innings. This was after giving-up just two runs in 13 1/3 innings in his first two starts.
Washington will look to maintain at least a share of first place in the NL East behind Jordan Zimmermann. This right-hander continues to be a productive piece of the Nationals’ starting rotation with a 1.33 ERA in four previous starts. He is 1-1 with a 2.03 against the Diamondbacks.
The D-Backs are 1-4 in their last five games against a team with a winning record and 4-6 in their last 10 games overall. The Nationals are 16-5 in their last 21 games on one day’s rest and 8-2 in their last 10 home games against a right-handed starter. Stick with Washington to snap a four-game skid with the win at home. [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]
Game 2- Miami Marlins vs. San Francisco Giants
Money Line: Miami +125 San Francisco -140
Total Line: 7
Miami will kick this three-game series off with Ricky Nolasco on the mound for Tuesday’s Game 1. He is 2-0 on the year with a 3.20 ERA, but more important, the right-hander is 4-2 lifetime against the Giants with a 1.61 ERA including a 3-0 record and 0.76 ERA at AT&T Park.
Matt Cain is slated to get the start for San Francisco. He has posted a 1-1 record with an ERA of 2.37 in his first four starts, but got tagged with three earned runs including two home runs in last Tuesday’s loss to Cincinnati. Cain is 3-2 against the Marlins with a 3.28 ERA.
The Marlins are 10-1 in Nolasco’s last 11 starts on a Tuesday and the Giants are 2-6 in Cain’s last eight starts in the first game of a new series. Overall, San Francisco is just 8-19 in Game 1 of its last 27 series. Stick with Miami as a likely road underdog to round-out the back-end of this parlay with the win.
