Parlay: Boston Red Sox VS Seattle Mariners 2025-06-16

Okay, let's tackle this same game parlay for the Mariners vs. Red Sox game. First, I need to understand what a same game parlay is—it's when you combine multiple bets on the same game to increase potential payouts. The user wants the best one, so I need to look at the available options and pick the most favorable combination based on the given stats and odds.

Looking at the data provided, the key elements are the moneyline, run line (spreads), and totals. The game is at T-Mobile Park, which is a pitcher-friendly park, so maybe the under is a good bet. The Mariners are favored with odds around -178, and their starter, Logan Gilbert, has a low ERA (2.37). The Red Sox's starter, Lucas Giolito, has a higher ERA (5.45), which might make the Red Sox more vulnerable.

For the parlay, combining the Mariners moneyline with the under on the total could be a solid play. The under is at 7.0 runs, and since both teams have decent pitching but not explosive offenses, the under might be more likely. The Mariners have a 4-5 record when favored, and the Red Sox have a 2-3 record as underdogs, which might indicate the underdog isn't performing too badly against top teams.

Another angle is the run line. The Mariners are -1.5 run line favorites. If you take the Mariners -1.5, that's a more challenging bet but offers higher odds. However, combining that with the under might be tricky. Alternatively, taking the Red Sox +1.5 with the over could be a stretch, but given Giolito's ERA, maybe the Red Sox can score a few runs.

Looking at the key players: Cal Raleigh (Mariners) has 26 HRs, Rafael Devers (Red Sox) has 15 HRs. If the over is taken, their power could be a factor. But given the park and the starting pitchers, the under might be safer.

The best combination seems to be Mariners moneyline (-178) + Under 7.0 runs. The moneyline gives a good chance of winning the game, and the under is supported by the pitchers' ERAs and the park. The odds for the under are around 2.0, so combining with the moneyline (which is roughly 1.53) gives a parlay with decent value. Let me check the bookmakers' lines to confirm the best odds. For example, FanDuel has the under at 2.0, and the moneyline for Mariners at 1.53. The combined odds would be 1.53 * 2.0 = 3.06, which is a 3.06 multiplier. That's a solid return for a parlay.

Another possible combo is Mariners -1.5 run line + Under. The run line is 1.5, and the under is 7.0. The run line is a bit riskier but offers higher odds. If the Mariners win by 2 or more, that's a win. The under still holds if the total runs are low. Given Gilbert's performance and the park, this could work. The odds for the run line on Mariners are around 2.15 (FanDuel), and the under is 2.0, so combined odds would be 2.15 * 2.0 = 4.3, which is higher but riskier.

Considering the Mariners' strong pitching and the Red Sox's higher ERA starter, the under is more likely. The moneyline is a safer bet, so combining those two might be the best same game parlay. Also, checking the team's performance in similar situations: the Mariners have a 4-5 record when favored, and the Red Sox have a 2-3 as underdogs. The under is 7.0, and the Mariners have a 36-30-4 record in games with that over/under, which is a slight edge towards the under.

So, the best same game parlay is likely the Mariners moneyline and the Under 7.0 runs. The key stats supporting this are Gilbert's low ERA, Giolito's higher ERA, the park's pitcher-friendly nature, and the teams' slugging percentages (Mariners 7th, Red Sox 5th in SLG but not too high). The under is more probable here. The potential payout is decent, and the risk is balanced between the two bets.

Best Same Game Parlay: Seattle Mariners Moneyline + Under 7.0 Runs
Odds: ~3.06 (1.53 x 2.0)
