Blue Jays vs Cubs Prediction, Pick

George Springer Home Run
FanDuel Logo

I don't know if the game will be played today, but if it is, the spot is far too good to pass up.

Cubs SP Shota Imanaga is a gas can for righty power. The weather is only a slight downgrade for power.

I have the true odds on George Springer around +420.

Pick: George Springer Home Run



Pirates vs Rockies Prediction, Pick

Colorado Rockies Logo
Spencer Horwitz Home Run
FanDuel Logo

Rockies starter Michael Lorenzen is a gas can for lefty power, and Spencer Horwitz has been hitting the ball well.

I have the true odds for the Pirates 1B around +500.

Pick: Spencer Horwitz Home Run



Twins vs Diamondbacks Prediction, Pick

Byron Buxton Home Run
FanDuel Logo

Byron Buxton has become an automatic play if the price isn't terrible.

The Twins CF might be the hottest player in the league right now, and I have the true odds around +250.

Pick: Byron Buxton Home Run



Orioles vs Dodgers Prediction, Pick

Los Angeles Dodgers Logo
Pete Alonso Home Run
FanDuel Logo

The ballpark is a big upgrade for righty power, and the spot is a good one.

Pete Alonso is one of the best home run hitters in the league, and I have the true odds for the Orioles 1B around +300.

Pick: Pete Alonso Home Run



Mets vs Phillies Prediction, Pick

Philadelphia Phillies Logo
Juan Soto Home Run
FanDuel Logo

The matchup isn't great, but the odds on Juan Soto are too high.

Phillies ace Zack Wheeler is an average matchup for lefty power, but the ballpark is a big upgrade, and the weather is a plus for hitting.

I have the true odds for the Mets LF around +320, making this a great EV bet.

Pick: Juan Soto Home Run
