Editor's Note: A home run parlay is not the author's formal recommendation. These home run picks have value as straight bets.
Mets vs Phillies Prediction, Pick
Bryce Harper has been good this season, and Freddy Peralta has been hit hard by lefties this year, allowing a 1.48 HR/9.
The ballpark is great for lefty power, and the weather is good, with temperatures in the 80s and the wind crossing to right at 12 MPH.
I have the true odds on the Phillies 1B around +350.
Pick: Bryce Harper Home Run

Pirates vs Rockies Prediction, Pick
Pirates' lefties like Ryan O'Hearn get one of the best matchups in the league for home runs today.
Tomoyuki Sugano has been an absolute gas can for lefty power in his career, allowing over a 2 HR/9.
The ballpark is one of the best in the league for power, and I have the true odds on the Pirates DH around +420.
Pick: Ryan O'Hearn Home Run

Angels vs Athletics Prediction, Pick
I prefer to target lefties vs. J.T. Ginn, but the odds are too good on Angels' power righties like Zach Neto.
Ginn has above-average splits and has allowed a below-average number of HRs to righties in his career, but he grades out as an average matchup for righty power.
The ballpark is a massive upgrade for power for the Angels, and the weather is great, with the wind blowing out at 12 MPH and temperatures in the 80s.
The Angels shortstop has been in great form recently, and I have the true odds around +350.
Pick: Zach Neto Home Run

Red Sox vs Mariners Prediction, Pick
Cal Raleigh hasn't been great this season, but the spot is too good to pass up.
Connelly Early is an above-average matchup for righty power, allowing a 1.62 HR/9, and Raleigh has been much better from the right side of the plate in his career.
I have the true odds on the Mariners DH around +270.
Pick: Cal Raleigh Home Run

Twins vs Diamondbacks Prediction, Pick
Byron Buxton has become close to an automatic play every day for the last month. He's hitting the ball incredibly well, and the spot here is a good one.
Zac Gallen isn't the same pitcher he used to be, and he has been hit hard by righty power, allowing a 1.7 HR/9.
I have the true odds on the Twins CF around +230.
Pick: Byron Buxton Home Run
