TORONTO – A five-leg MLB Opening Day parlay at Bovada combines all of our best bets for +1625 odds. The MLB betting parlay begins with the Blue Jays -106 moneyline odds against the Baltimore Orioles.

• Blue Jays ML (-106) Vs Baltimore Orioles
• Philadelphia Phillies -1.5 (+105) Vs Washington Nationals
• Houston Astros First 5 Innings ML (-145) Vs New York Mets
• Pirates/Marlins No Run First Inning (-165)

Orioles pitcher Zach Eflin started against the Blue Jays last year on Opening Day during his time with the Tampa Bay Rays, but he gave up six runs over 5 2/3 innings pitched in a losing effort. Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has a .368 batting average with two home runs in 19 career at-bats against Eflin.

Take the Jays at -106 and build the parlay with the Philadelphia Phillies to cover the run line at +105 legal sports betting odds against the Washington Nationals. NL Cy young runner-up Zack Wheeler is on the bump for the Phillies and made light work of the Nationals last season, posting a 2.29 ERA with 23 strikeouts across 19 2/3 innings pitched.

The Astros have -126 moneyline odds to take down the New York Mets on Opening Day, but we’re taking Houston to win the first five innings instead at -145 odds. Astros starter Framber Valdez has only allowed three earned runs across his last three Opening Day starts, so rely on Valdez to limit the Mets offense and avoid Houston’s shaky bullpen to close out their moneyline odds.

Other 2 MLB Best Bets: Pirate/Marlins NRFI, Mariners ML

A collection of aces in Paul Skenes and Sandy Alcantara paired with two lackluster offenses is a great recipe for a NRFI in the Pirates and Marlins game. There are -165 odds at Bovada Sportsbook for there to be no runs scored in the first inning in this one.

Seattle Mariners moneyline (-174) closes out our +1625 Opening Day parlay against the Athletics. Logan Gilbert projects for only 1.5 earned runs allowed and should ease through the Athletics lineup after posting a league-best 0.89 WHIP last season.
