MLB St. Louis Cardinals vs Chicago Cubs Same Game Parlay picks

One of the best rivalries in baseball resumes on Friday afternoon as the Chicago Cubs host the St. Louis Cardinals in the second game of a 4-game series at Wrigley Field. Both teams are well out of the playoff picture at the moment, but the visitors are playing their best baseball of the season, while the hosts are sending their ace to the mound.

Below is my Same Game Parlay for this matchup, and also be sure to check out all of our MLB picks.

Chicago Cubs -1.5 (+158)

Over 8.5 (-105)

Paul Goldschmidt to record a hit (-260)

Same Game Parlay odds: +538

Part of the value in Same Game Parlays, of course, is that all of its components can be correlated if you so choose. At the same time, plays that aren’t correlated drive up the overall payout of the parlay. That is the case here, as Paul Goldschmidt getting a hit doesn’t necessarily correlate with a convincing Cubs win on paper.

Chicago Cubs -1.5 (+158)

Both teams are swinging the bats well, but Chicago has the clear advantage on the mound. The Cubs will be starting Justin Steele, who had a terrific first half of the campaign. His ERA is still below 3.00, which even includes a bad outing last week against the Red Sox in which he surrendered 6 runs. Steele dominated the Cardinals in London earlier this season, holding them to just 1 run in a hitters’ park.

Given how good Steele has been this season, I’m expecting him to turn in another strong performance. It’s hard to be as confident in Jack Flaherty, who has been the picture of inconsistency this season. I trust Steele and the Cubs offense at home, so let’s back the home team on Friday afternoon.

What was the price of Mark Cuban’s majority stake sale in the Dallas Mavericks, and what was the deal’s special clause?

Mark Cuban, an American entrepreneur and investor best known for his appearance on the television show Shark Tank, is set to retain complete control over every aspect of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team. The team’s ownership is currently in the process of being transferred , and it has been estimated that the deal could be worth as much as $3.5 billion . The transfer of ownership is expected to be approved by the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) in the coming weeks. Cuban, who has been the owner of the Mavericks since 2000, when he purchased a majority stake in the team for $285 million , will continue to hold a stake in the franchise and retain control over all basketball decisions. The team’s new owner will be Miriam Adelson , the widow of Sheldon Adelson, a well-known casino magnate. She will take over ownership of the team, but Cuban will remain the driving force behind the team’s decision-making process. 2000: 2023: Cuban buys Mavs
