Looking for tonight’s Kansas City Royals vs San Diego Padres MLB best bets to score a killer same game parlay win? Lucky for you, you’ve come to the right place.

With both teams entering tonight’s game at Petco Park and having won their previous games, let’s run through the top MLB player props. We also have the best MLB parlay bets today for the first of three in a weekend series.

Top 3 Royals vs Padres Parlay Picks

1. San Diego Padres -1.5 (+144)

Kicking off my MLB picks and parlays for tonight’s Royals vs Padres game I’m going with the best value bet on the board, taking San Diego to cover the run line at +144 odds.

Not only have the Padres shown they are one of the best teams to target when betting on covering the run line this season, having covered in 43 out of 74 games this season, but their 20-13 record at home gives even more assurance.

MLB betting trends and stats don’t lie. San Diego plays its best baseball at Petco Park. Coming off a strong win against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday night and holding a 15-11 run line record when playing at home, everything adds up here to chase those +144 odds.

Bet San Diego Padres -1.5 (+144)

2. Michael Lorenzen Over 2.5 Earned Runs Allowed (-110)

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if you’re a Michael Lorenzen fan, you should really start rethinking your priorities.

Lorenzen, tonight’s starter for KC, is entering tonight’s game following a reeling end of May and beginning of June, eating up 20 runs in his last five starts combined.

With a 5.94 road ERA this season and a 2-5 record, if San Diego’s offense gets into its groove from the start of the game, seeing Lorenzen give up at least three runs stands as one of the best MLB parlay bets today.

Bet Michael Lorenzen Over 2.5 Earned Runs (-110)

3. Manny Machado Over 0.5 Hits (-251)

Love him or hate him, there’s no denying Manny Machado is one of San Diego’s most consistent producers at the plate this season.

With a .310 batting average, 45 RBIs and an .865 OPS average, besides home runs (Fernando Tatis Jr. has 13, Machado 11), Manny leads San Diego in all of the most important offensive production stat lines.

Entering tonight’s game, Machado comes in with six hits over the last seven days, putting up a single in Thursday’s win against LA, a much more difficult team to face than the Royals.

If Machado can continue with his recent form on the plate and snag up at least a single, taking his over in hits at -251 odds is an MLB player prop today not to be missed.

Bet Manny Machado Over 0.5 Hits (-251)
