Mike Trout Home Run
FanDuel Logo

Mike Trout has been great this season, and while he gets a tough matchup overall, it's not a bad one for home runs.

Trey Yesavage grades out as a reverse-splits pitcher with his pitch mix and steep arm angle.

I make the fair odds on this home run prop lower than +300.

Pick: Mike Trout Home Run



Cubs vs Rangers

Moises Ballesteros Home Run
FanDuel Logo

Moises Ballesteros has been great this season, and the power looks real.

The spot today is a good one, going up against Jack Leiter, who has been a plus matchup for lefty power in his career, allowing a 1.29 HR/9, and he grades out as an even better matchup.

I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +500.

Pick: Moises Ballesteros Home Run



Mariners vs White Sox

Cal Raleigh Home Run
FanDuel Logo

Cal Raleigh has pulled things together a bit since his slow start.

The spot is a great one against Anthony Kay, who has above-average splits and grades out as a big plus matchup for righty power.

Raleigh has been much better batting from the right side of the plate, and the weather in Chicago is great for hitting, with the wind blowing out to right field.

I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +250.

Pick: Cal Raleigh Home Run
