MLB Parlay Today: Can Riley Greene, Jarred Kelenic Stay Hot on Friday Night?
We have a nice Friday MLB slate today and I have put together a two leg parlay for it that I really like. It consists of two hitters that have been hitting the ball very well as of late.
MLB Parlay Today
Leg 1: Jarred Kelenic to Record 1+ Hit
Jarred Kelenic has been hitting the ball extremely well since he took over the leadoff spot for the Atlanta Braves. On the season, he has hit lefties well and has played well at home overall. He is hitting .293 against lefties and .279 at home so far. He has been seeing lefties very well over the past few weeks as he is six for his last ten against them which is extremely good.
The matchups is great today as Kelenic will go against Pirates lefty, Martin Perez who is making his first start off the IL today. On the season, he ranks in the fourth percentile in expected batting average allowed and has allowed lefties to hit .296 against him this season which is way above average. I think Kelenic and the Braves offense will be able to hit him well today.
Leg 2 Riley Greene to Record 1+ Hit
Riley Greene is also riding a hot streak as he has now recorded a hit in 15 of his last 17 games. The matchups for him could not be much better against Zach Plesac who is starting today for the Los Angeles Angels. Plesac has been terrible so far especially against lefties. He has allowed an expected batting average of .369 in his few starts which is one of the highest in the MLB.
Riley Greene is hitting .359 this month and I expect him to stay hit in a plus matchup on the road. He should see five or more plate appearances which also improves his odds for a hit tonight.
