MARQ

Ian Happ

Home Run

The odds are just drastically off on nearly everyone in this game, and I'm taking Ian Happ to hit a dinger today.

Neither pitcher is great at suppressing home runs, and the wind is howling out at around 20 mph.

I have the true odds for the Cubs left fielder around +300, making this a great bet.

Pick: Ian Happ Home Run (+310)

4:10 p.m. ET

ROYL

Vinnie Pasquantino

Home Run

The Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino gets a good spot today against struggling Mariners SP Luis Castillo.

I have the true odds here around +450.

Pick: Vinnie Pasquantino Home Run (+499)

Peacock

Riley Greene

Home Run

The weather and ballpark aren't great, but these odds are far too high.

I have the true odds around +450 for Tigers LF Riley Greene, making this an excellent bet.

Pick: Riley Greene Home Run (+500)

Kerry Carpenter

Home Run

The matchup is good for Kerry Carpenter, even though the weather and ballpark aren't great, as we mentioned.

I also have the true odds around +450 for Detroit's designated hitter.

Pick: Kerry Carpenter Home Run (+490)
