Dodgers vs Marlins Parlay Picks
Dodgers ML
This one’s a no-brainer — we’re taking the Dodgers to win.
Los Angeles is coming off a strong series win against the Braves and recently swept the Marlins.
Sandy Alcantara, who gets the start for Miami on Monday, struggled mightily in his last outing against the Dodgers, allowing seven earned runs in a 15-2 blowout loss.
The Dodgers are simply the better team on both sides of the ball, and with the Marlins reeling, this sets up as another mismatch.
In a simple, plus-money parlay, back the MLB’s top team to take care of business once again.
Mookie Betts Hit
We’re also backing Mookie Betts to record a hit. Betts has had success against the Marlins all season, notching a hit in every matchup.
In his previous game against Alcantara, he went 2-for-4 with two RBIs and a run scored.
Given his consistency and matchup history, Betts to record a hit is a strong play — and a great parlay piece alongside a Dodgers win.
