MLB prop parlays for Saturday 8/20

It's a packed day of baseball, and we're approaching the slate with a handful of prop parlays.

Houston offers value tonight vs. Rams

It's been a lot of baseball around these parts, so let's mix it up with a dive into some preseason NFL action. There are three games tonight, and two offer up some intriguing trends and matchups, enough for us to put our money down on some August football.

Here are the odds for each NFL team to finish the regular season with the fewest wins

Yesterday we looked at the betting market for the team to top the regular season in wins. A more fun exercise, and one that feels like it holds terrific value, is looking at which NFL team will end the year with the fewest wins.

Jacob deGrom is the king of K's

Yesterday's prop picks didn't quite go so well, thank goodness that Max Scherzer was able to outlast a rain delay and come back to deliver us a miracle hit on his strikeout prop. Today's a new day, with new opportunity.

Betting on the NFL team to finish the year with the most wins

The NFL season is a mere three weeks away, and before it gets there we'd like to dive into the betting market on teams' regular-season success. DraftKings has opened odds for teams to lead the NFL in wins.

Max Scherzer pitching prop has value

How's that for a Dinger Tuesday? The Philadelphia-Cincinnati game gave us seven homers, including two from our guy Rhys Hoskins, and Luis Renigfo delivered for us in the late game at +630.

NFL Comeback Player of the Year betting odds and picks

Jameis Winston and Christian McCaffrey are favorites for Comeback Player of the Year. Who else has made the cut?

Tasty trio of thumpers for Dinger Tuesday

Dinger Tuesday is back, and so is our foray into this market. While we did not identify a HR hitter last week, we did circle the right games, collecting a good chunk of free bets back from FanDuel.

WNBA Playoffs predictions and odds: Game 1's to set the tone

The WNBA regular season has concluded, leaving us with eight teams duking it out for the 2022 WNBA championship.  

Betting odds to win the AFC: Loaded conference brings a balanced board

The AFC is a packed conference. The Bengals made it to the Super Bowl last year (what a payout that would have been), but this has been the Chiefs conference for the past few seasons.

And the hits (parlays) just keep on coming

We didn't receive any thank-you emails for sweeping the board on our prop parlays, but that's OK — we know you would've if you could've.

Betting odds to win the NFC: Top-heavy conference offers interesting value

Yardbarker has been serving up NFL futures left and right. Odds to win the division, team-by-team win totals, individuals to win MVP — you name it. Next, we're taking a holistic view of each conference by looking at the betting odds for each team to reach the Super Bowl out of the NFC.

These MLB prop parlays bring the value

With a limited slate on the diamond, our focus today is again on a few MLB prop parlays that seem to offer some nice value.

The NFL betting options available to us on sportsbooks like DraftKings are nearly endless as we await the start of the season on September 8. If you like projecting out full season totals, the futures market is for you.

Props power peachy pitching parlay

MLB will carry us throughout the whole day, as Wednesday means afternoon baseball. We have a few pitcher props that stand out based on matchups and recent trends.

NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year betting odds and prediction

The top of the NFL Draft was loaded with defenders, making this an intriguing award to find a bet in.

NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year betting odds and prediction

In a year where only one quarterback was selected in the first two rounds, Offensive Rookie of the Year feels wide open. Last year it was WR Ja'Marr Chase who brought home the honors. Who will it be this year?

Look for a bomb from Bohm on Dinger Tuesday

It's Tuesday! Time to root on some long bombs. Make sure to opt in to Dinger Tuesday on FanDuel, which gives you $5 back for every homer hit in the game where you've bet on a player to hit a HR.

Betting on the Chiefs' Skyy Moore to top all rookies in receiving yards

NFL season is a little over a month away, and sports betting in Kansas is soon to launch. With that in mind, it felt like a nice time to look around the market to find our favorite Chiefs player prop for the season, and we've narrowed our search down to one of their new pass catchers.

When it comes to overs, it ain't over until it's over

We have some high-profile MLB games to enjoy on this Friday evening, and we're looking at runs scored to lead the way.  

Here are the top 16 betting odds for 2022 NFL Coach of the Year

If you're looking for some NFL awards futures to have in your pocket, we've been doing the legwork to get you covered in that area. Earlier this week, we dove into Offensive Player of the Year targets, and yesterday we dug into some candidates for Defensive Player of the Year.

And the hits just keep on coming 

After having some success yesterday with pitcher props, let's turn the tables and focus in on some batters in a good spot to have a day in MLB.  

Two value bets for NFL Defensive Player of the Year

The top of the board is headlined by a pair of edge rushers, including last season's winner. Repeat wins have become the norm of late. JJ Watt and Aaron Donald have accounted for six of the last 10 winners.

Look to Martin Perez to rack up the K's

Well, our home run targets didn't come through, but we did get 8 HRs in those two games, giving us back $40 in free bets! Not a bad deal all things considered, and we had some fun doing it.  On to a new day in baseball.

Two value bets for the NFL Offensive Player of the Year

The NFL futures market is alive and well, and one award that offers us some intriguing value is the winner of Offensive Player of the Year. This award has become one designated for the top non-QB of late.
