MLB odds, lines, picks: Parlay that would pay almost 11-1 from advanced computer model features Brewers

The Brewers open a three-game weekend series with the Nationals in Milwaukee tonight. It'll be Eric Lauer (3-1, 2.60 ERA) against Erick Fedde (2-2, 4.24). Milwaukee leads the National League Central, while Washington resides in the basement of the NL East and has lost seven of its last ten. 

Caesars Sportsbook lists the Brewers as -185 money-line favorites (risk $185 to win $100), and the Nationals as +165 underdogs. The game begins at 8:10 ET on Friday. (See up-to-date lines for every game on our MLB odds page.)

Before making any MLB picks or parlays, be sure to see the MLB predictions and betting advice from SportsLine's proven computer model.

The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every MLB game 10,000 times and it is off to a profitable start to the 2022 season. It's on a 33-25 roll on top-rated MLB money-line picks through six weeks, returning more than $300 for $100 players. Anyone following it has seen HUGE returns.

Now, the model has set its sights on the MLB schedule for Friday, May 20. Using its top picks for the day, the model has generated a four-leg parlay that would pay almost 11-1. The parlay doesn't start until 8:10 p.m. ET, giving you plenty of time to make your MLB picks.

We can tell you that one of the picks is the Brewers (-185) to beat the Nationals. But the model has three other picks, including a play on an underdog who wins outright more than 50 percent of the time. You ABSOLUTELY need to see them before locking in any MLB picks of your own.
