Morning Coffee: FanDuel Bettor Wins $1 Million On MLB Parlay

On Monday morning, I wrote about the MLB upset that spoiled my 10-leg, cross-sport parlay that would have cashed at 68-to-1 at FanDuel.

The free-falling Los Angeles Angels beat the Atlanta Braves 9-1 for their first win that Shohei Ohtani did not pitch in since June 27th.

Atlanta was -220 on the money line.

Fortunately for yours truly, the Angels were right back at it on Monday night, giving me another chance to fade them.

Los Angeles managed just five hits as the Kansas City Royals cruised to a 7-0 win.

With the loss, the Angels fell to 1-15 in their past 16 games that Ohtani hasn’t pitched.

That’s just a remarkable slide for a team with two of the biggest superstars in the game.

Here’s the TSN EDGE Morning Coffee for Tuesday July 26th, 2022.

FanDuel Bettor Wins $1 Million On MLB Parlay

Sticking with the theme of remarkable, it isn’t every morning that you wake up to news that somebody won a million dollars on a four-leg MLB parlay on FanDuel.

Then again, I don’t know many people that are betting $62,000 on baseball games.

The Cincinnati Reds, which own the third-worst record in baseball, cruised to an 11-2 win over the Miami Marlins.

Cincinnati scored enough runs on its own to cash the over (9) in that contest.

All of a sudden, the Reds are one of the hottest teams in baseball.

With Cincinnati cruising to an easy win, all the bettor needed was the Philadelphia Phillies to rally for a win against the rival Braves.   

Then this happened.
