Friday’s MLB slate is stacked, and here’s the deal: BetMGM has a sweet offer, giving new users $150 in bonus bets if their first qualifying wager wins, or up to $1,500 if it loses, with bonus code CBSSPORTS. But forget the intro; the real story is the SportsLine Projection Model. It’s on a scorching 35-21 run on top-rated MLB picks and has dropped a three-leg parlay for Friday that could net you a wild +645 payout. You gotta see these picks.
Dodgers vs. Mets: Over 9 Runs and Offensive Fireworks
First up, it’s Dodgers vs. Mets, and the model is hitting the Over 9 total runs. Why? The Dodgers are stacked with Shohei Ohtani, Kyle Tucker, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman. They averaged six runs a game against the Phillies and are already third in baseball with 5.19 runs per game. The Mets counter with Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor. Pitching? Roki Sasaki for the Dodgers carries a 4.98 ERA, and Sean Manaea, for the Mets, allowed four runs in under five innings last Saturday, sitting at a 4.74 ERA. The model sees the Over in a whopping 60.4% of simulations. This pick is aggressive, but the numbers back it.
Pitching Props Round Out a Massive Parlay
Then, we’re looking at two crucial pitching props. Jesus Luzardo of the Phillies is predicted for Over 7.5 strikeouts. SportsLine expert Angelo Magliocca likes his chances, even against a righty-heavy Yankees lineup, noting Luzardo’s effectiveness against both sides of the plate. And for the Giants, Logan Webb is projected for Over 19.5 total outs. Combine all three of these, the Dodgers-Mets Over, Luzardo’s strikeouts, and Webb’s outs, and you’re staring at that juicy +645 payout. Imagine turning a C-note into $645. That’s a Friday night to remember.
So, with Week 18 of the MLB season heating up, the SportsLine model continues its absolute tear. It crushed home run props in 2025, and this year it’s all about top-rated picks. This isn’t guesswork; it’s a model simulating every game 10,000 times. Make sure to watch how these games unfold tonight, because this kind of hot streak is rare, and that bonus bet offer is prime.
