Athletics vs Orioles
Big Meat Pete has been on a tear recently, and he gets a great spot tonight.
Jacob Lopez is an absolute gas can for righty power, and this is a clear 'don't overthink it' spot.
I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +300.
Pick: Pete Alonso Home Run (+340, FanDuel)

Angels vs Blue Jays
Trout doesn't get a great spot, but the odds on him to go yard tonight are too high.
Dylan Cease is well above average, but he projects around 1.00 HR/9 vs. righties.
Trout has been one of the best hitters in the league this season, and this ballpark is an upgrade for him.
I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +350.
Pick: Mike Trout Home Run (+410, FanDuel)

Mariners vs White Sox
Murakami has been one of the best hitters in the league this season and is an absolute dinger machine.
Emerson Hancock has been better this season, but he still grades out as a big plus for lefty power, allowing a massive 1.60 HR/9 in his career.
This ballpark isn't great, but I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +250.
Pick: Munetaka Murakami Home Run (+300, FanDuel)
