Astros vs Orioles Home Run Pick
Big meat Pete hasn't been off to a great start to his Baltimore career, but the underlying fly-ball and hard-contact numbers are still good.
He gets a mediocre matchup vs. Kai-Wei Teng, who will likely only go a few innings, which should make it mostly a bullpen game.
Even in a below-average spot, I have the true odds here around +450, making this a good bet.
Pick: Pete Alonso 1+ Home Runs (+502)

Angels vs White Sox Home Run Pick
The weather isn't going to be great, but these odds are still too high.
Trout has been fantastic this season (near the league lead in HRs), and his barrel rate is the best of his career.
Opposing pitcher Davis Martin has been good this season, but he's due for some negative regression and grades out as an above-average matchup for HRs.
I have the true odds here around +325, making this a great bet.
Pick: Mike Trout 1+ Home Runs (+390)

Yankees vs Rangers Home Run Pick
Grisham hasn't been hitting a ton of bombs this season, but the power is there, and this isn't a bad spot.
Jacob deGrom is still a great pitcher, but he has been hit hard by lefties, allowing a 1.40 HR/9 since the beginning of last season.
This ballpark is a downgrade for Grisham, but I have the true odds here around +350, making this a great bet.
Pick: Trent Grisham 1+ Home Runs (+425)

Cubs vs Padres Home Run Pick
I know that the weather is colder than usual in San Diego, but there is no way that these odds should be this high.
Opposing pitcher Walker Buehler has been a complete gas can for righty power over the past 2 seasons, allowing more than a 2.00 HR/9.
This ballpark isn't great for power, but Suzuki has been in good form recently after a slow start.
I have the true odds here around +450, making this a great bet.
Pick: Seiya Suzuki 1+ Home Runs (+540)
