It’s another full slate on the diamond Tuesday, May 26, and I’ve got three MLB same-game parlay predictions to cover you for tonight’s action.

My top MLB picks begin with a Chicago Cubs SGP and wrap up with parlays backing the Athletics and Los Angeles Dodgers in the late window.

Today’s best MLB SGP picksCubs vs. Pirates SGP: Chicago snaps nine-game skid

The Pittsburgh Pirates strikeout at the second-highest clip in baseball against lefties, while ranking 22nd in wOBA, and Chicago Cubs southpaw Jordan Wicks has scattered a single run through 15 innings across his past three Triple-A starts. Wicks also sports a respectable 8.2 K/9 across 60 1/3 MLB innings the past two years.

Turning to Cubs first baseman Michael Busch, he’s gone 3-for-8 with a pair of homers the past two games, and his .246 batting average against righties this season is way below his .272 mark in 2025.

Where to watch: SNP, MARQ

Mariners vs. Athletics SGP: Bats power A’s to upset win

The Athletics have beat up on righties to the tune of a second-ranked OPS and third-ranked wOBA, and Seattle Mariners righty Emerson Hancock has surrendered a healthy 44.2% hard-hit rate while sporting an unsustainable 83.3% strand rate.

Hancock has also been more vulnerable away from pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park and allowed a .355 wOBA with a 5.12 ERA across 96 2/3 career innings, so I like Athletics left-handed hitters Nick Kurtz and Carlos Cortes to have solid nights at the dish. They respectively sport elite .446 and .411 wOBAs against right-handed arms this season, after all.

Rockies vs. Dodgers SGP: Boys in Blue keep rolling

The Colorado Rockies strikeout at the highest rate against lefties, and Los Angeles Dodgers southpaw Eric Lauer is a candidate for improvement. He spun a solid 3.18 ERA and 3.86 xERA across 104 2/3 innings last year, so I’m expecting regression to his respective 6.69 and 5.83 current marks.

Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez has been a force against lefties with a .391 wOBA and .284 ISO since the beginning of 2024, and he’s also rolling along a 12-game heater consisting of 11 runs, 17 hits, and 14 RBI with a 1.099 OPS.

Where to watch: SportsNet-Los Angeles, COLR
