MLB odds, lines, picks: Advanced computer model includes the Dodgers in parlay for Monday, August 12 that would pay more than 7-1

The current favorite to win the National League Cy Young takes the mound on Monday against the league's reigning Cy Young winner in a matchup of the Atlanta Braves vs. San Francisco Giants at 9:45 p.m. ET. Chris Sale, an eight-time All-Star, starts for the Braves and is 13-3 with a 2.75 ERA, leading the NL in wins and ERA as the current NL Cy Young favorite. Blake Snell, who threw a no-hitter on August 2, is the reigning NL Cy Young winner and has a 4.31 ERA this season for the Giants. Which of these aces should you feel most confident in when making Monday MLB bets? Should you have enough faith to include either of these teams in your MLB parlay? Meanwhile, Framber Valdez takes the ball for the Houston Astros vs. Tampa Bay Rays at 6:50 p.m. ET and Valdez was one out away from a no-hitter in his last start on Tuesday, making this another intriguing matchup to include in MLB parlay bets.

The Giants are -111 favorites (risk $111 to win $100) in the latest Giants vs. Braves odds, while the Braves are -109 underdogs. The over/under for total runs scored is 6.5. The game is one of 11 on the MLB schedule for Monday (See up-to-date lines for every game on our MLB odds page.)
