Alex Kolodziej’s Marlins vs Angels Preview, Prediction
Miami Marlins Betting Preview: Home Run Pick
If he’s in the lineup for Saturday’s Marlins–Angels game, I’m betting Marlins outfielder Derek Hill to hit a home run.
Despite having only two homers this season, Hill’s power potential is significantly undervalued by the betting markets, with tempting +1350 odds offered at BetMGM.
Our proprietary PRO data highlights Hill as a strong pick to go deep.
Hill typically plays in Miami’s loanDepot Park, which ranks 26th among MLB stadiums for right-handed hitters in home runs, limiting his opportunities to showcase power.
However, this matchup is at Angel Stadium, which has been one of the best parks for right-handed home run hitters over the past three seasons, consistently ranking in the top five.
Additionally, Hill usually bats lower in the Marlins lineup, which may suppress expectations. However, PRO Projections estimates him at 0.14 homers for the game, indicating a solid edge against the current betting odds.
At +1300, I’m in for this pick.
Pick: Derek Hill Home Run (+1350; BetMGM)
