We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Sunday, including picks from the PLL, MLB and MLS. One pick is taken from each sport with a second pick from the MLB. A winning ticket would give us a nice payout with odds of +1727 at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Let’s break down each of these plays.
PLL: Redwoods vs Chaos – Over 23.5 goals (-110), 3:30 pm ET
This week we see two of the most skilled but least consistent offenses in the league. The Redwoods have the ability to score in bunches and have a set of shooters who can score 2-point goals at a moment’s notice. Meanwhile, the Chaos have half of the Canadian national team on offense, playing their unique style and creating matchup nightmares for the defense.
With the amount of talent on offense, no matter how good the defense is, there will also be at least two favorable matchups. Given the fact that Chaos goalie Blaze Riorden struggles with 2-point shots and that Redwoods goalie Jack Kelly is sub 50%, this is the perfect time to bet the over.

MLB: New York Mets ML (-150) over Miami Marlins, 1:40 pm ET
With the Braves continuing to breathe down their neck in the NL East, the Mets cannot afford to take their foot off the gas. That’s especially true against a Marlins team they are clearly superior to. Such dominance has had them with a double-digit game lead over Miami in the division as well. That should increase moving forward, as New York is also expected to have former Cy Young-winner Jacob deGrom back very soon. Until then, they will continue to rely on their other great starters such as Taijuan Walker, therefore backing the Mets will be the play.

MLS: Orlando City SC vs DC United – Draw (+235), 5:00 pm ET
Although the hosts have been poor at home, they are slight favorites today, and we cannot separate the squads. Six of Orlando’s 11 road matches finished in draws this year, and DC United has tied 2 of its last 4 home games. Therefore, we’ll play the draw in today’s MLS game.

MLB: San Diego Padres ML (-140) over Minnesota Twins, 4:10 pm ET
Dylan Bundy will make his first career start at Petco Park on Sunday afternoon in the rubber match of this 3-game series. Bundy had a decent first half of the season with a 6-4 record and a 4.71 ERA, but he started to regress in his July starts. This month, Bundy has a 6.05 ERA with a 1.40 WHIP, and unfortunately for the Twins starter, this start will be on the road. Playing away from Target Field has been Bundy’s kryptonite as his ERA spikes to 6.41, a drastic difference from his 2.61 ERA at home. His last start on the road came as his first outing post the all-star break against the Brewers, and he got shelled for 5 runs on 7 hits with 2 walks in 4 innings.
I don’t have much faith in Bundy on the road or the Twins bullpen, which has the 3rd worst FIP since the all-star break, so back the Padres to win the series.
