Best Parlay for Today, May 17 | FanDuel
Kyle Lowry Under 4.5 Assists (-130)
While Lowry is a great passer, he is not coming off the bench to pass. Instead, he will be looking to score, which means fewer opportunities to rack up assists. The Celtics are also a deeper team, which makes it less likely that Lowry will be able to make plays for his teammates. OddsShopper loves this pick, making it a great addition to any parlay. Take under 4.5 at -130.
Ryne Nelson Over 4.5 Strikeouts (-122)
Nelson is not a great pitcher, but he is going up against a weak Oakland team that is struggling this season. Nelson does not pitch to contact, which is good news when facing a team like Oakland. OddsShopper data shows a 57% win rate for this pick, but what looks even nicer is the 4% expected ROI, indicating this is beating the market.
MacKenzie Gore Under 6.5 Strikeouts (-144)
Gore is facing off against Edward Cabrera, who is a young and inexperienced pitcher. Gore has a high strikeout rate of 28.8%, but the Marlins are a hit-or-miss team that could get to Gore on the right night. Plus, Gore has a high walk rate of 11.9%. The race here is between how quickly Miami can get to Gore on the road and how fast Gore can get to seven strikeouts. OddsShopper likes the under better here at -144.
Rich Hill Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-144)
The Tigers have been performing better than expected this season and have been able to put up some runs. Hill is also not a strikeout pitcher, and there is a 59% chance of this pick hitting at -144. While it may not be the best value pick — less than 1% ROI — it is still positive and a strong addition to this parlay.
Bonus Leg (Just to Make it Hard): Mike Clevinger Under 4.5 Strikeouts (+100)
