Grant Neiffer’s Astros vs Rays Best MLB Prop Bets
Tampa Bay Rays Player Prop: Junior Homer
There’s not a big sample size on Houston starter Brandon Walter, but he seems to be a plus-matchup for right-handed power hitters.
That puts Junior Caminero in a great spot.
The weather in Tampa Bay should be great for bombs, with temperatures in the high 80s and wind blowing at around eight MPH. Tampa’s ballpark is among the most wind-receptive in the league, so it should be playing like a great power park on Tuesday.
I make the fair odds on this home run prop under +400.
Pick: Junior Caminero Over 0.5 Home Runs (+450, BetMGM)
