Best MLB Parlay Picks for June 11

  • Phillies ML vs. Diamondbacks (-190)
  • Brewers ML vs. Nationals (-144)
  • Blue Jays ML vs. RL vs. Tigers (-140)

A $25 wager would win $85.84 if it hits!

Phillies ML vs. Diamondbacks (-190)

With Philly’s offense back on track, this team becomes a lot more dangerous than their 29-29 record suggests. Despite emerging from an extended slump, the Phillies' offense ranks fourth in slugging percentage, fifth in runs per game, and seventh in total hits.

Madison Bumgarner will take on the task of slowing down the Phillies. But, I don’t see it going his way. After starting the season with a 1.17 ERA in April, the former superstar is quickly losing his mojo. His ERA rose to 5.33 in May and is at 4.91 so far in two starts this month. His last epic failure was on Monday when he gave up four runs in five innings to a terrible Reds team. 

Brewers ML vs. Nationals (-144)

This play has less to do with how good the Brewers are and more to do with how bad the Nationals are. Specifically starting pitcher Patrick Corbin. While Washington was able to beat up on the Brewers last night, Corbin could easily ruin their chances to take a 2-0 lead in this weekend series. He enters this game having given up 10 earned runs in his last 10 ⅓ innings of work and a 5.97 ERA in May. This is a perfect spot for the Brewers to rebound with Eric Lauer on the mound. His 2.38 ERA and 1.11 WHIP should remain intact after this date with Washington. 

Blue Jays ML vs. RL vs. Tigers (-140)

Go with Gausman is what I say. Kevin Gausman that is. The Jays are massive favorites today thanks to a huge pitching mismatch between Gausman and Beau Brieske (0-5). Brieske will make his ninth start for the Tigers and let's just say things have not been going well. Aside from a winless season, Brieske has a 4.93 ERA and 1.29 WHIP. This is a guy who could turn things around but with such a terrible offense behind him, it almost doesn't matter. The Blue Jays rank 7th in home runs and eighth in batting average. I foresee another tough game for Brieske on Saturday.
