Jackson Merrill ParlayPlay MLB Pick: OVER 0.5 Hits

In the second half of the season, Merrill’s 3.0 WAR was tied for fifth-best in baseball, and his .909 OPS was 10th-best! Dating back to September 1, Merrill posted a .556 SLG and 18.4% barrel rate against RHP! Logan Henderson was excellent down the stretch for Milwaukee, but it will be his postseason debut, and we just need one hit from Merrill in this one! Henderson will live and die with his four-seamer and changeup against left-handed hitters, and in the month of September, Merrill posted a .591 SLG against righty four-seamers and a .556 SLG against righty changeups.

Blake Snell ParlayPlay MLB Pick: OVER 6.5 Strikeouts

Is it postseason Blake Snell time? It’s postseason Blake Snell time. He has a strikeout rate north of 30% for his career in the postseason, and just last season, he posted at least seven strikeouts in all but one of his five postseason starts. His changeup and slider both posted a SwStr% of at least 25% in the regular season, and while Atlanta has some notable names in its lineup, they scuffled against LHP down the stretch, posting a 25.1% strikeout rate and 61 wRC+ against southpaws since September 1.
