Editor's Note: A home run parlay is not the author's formal recommendation. These home run picks have value as straight bets.
Rangers vs Blue Jays Prediction, Pick
After a slow start to the season, Wyatt Langford has been on a tear recently, and he gets a great spot here.
Blue Jays SP Patrick Corbin has been a great matchup for righty power in his career, and this season has been no different (1.48 HR/9).
This ballpark is a big upgrade in terms of power compared to Globe Life Field, and I have the true odds for the Rangers CF at around +350, making this a great bet.
Pick: Wyatt Langford Home Run

Diamondbacks vs Rays Prediction, Pick
Rays starter Nick Martinez has been having a good season when it comes to suppressing power, but he grades out as a matchup that is slightly above average for lefty power.
Ketel Marte is one of the best home run hitters in the league, and this ballpark is a lateral move when it comes to power.
I have the true odds for the Diamondbacks 2B at around +370.
Pick: Ketel Marte Home Run

Phillies vs Mets Prediction, Pick
Zack Wheeler is a great pitcher and a bad matchup overall, but the Phillies ace is a plus matchup for lefty power, allowing over a 1.30 HR/9 to lefties over the past 3 seasons.
The weather in New York should be good for hitting, with temperatures in the low 80s and wind blowing out at 9 mph.
I have the true odds for Mets star Juan Soto at around +325, making this an excellent bet.
Pick: Juan Soto Home Run
| | | | | |
Yankees vs Red Sox Prediction, Pick
I generally wouldn't love the lefty/lefty matchup, but in the short career of Red Sox SP Payton Tolle, he's been a heavy reverse-splits pitcher and has been crushed by lefty power (2.11 HR/9).
Ben Rice is one of the best HR hitters in the league, and I have the true odds here for the Yankees DH at around +350.
Pick: Ben Rice Home Run
| | | | | |
Athletics vs Angels Prediction, Pick
Walbert Urena has been good at suppressing power this season, but the Angels starter grades out as a reverse-splits pitcher and an average matchup for righty power.
Shea Langeliers is one of the best power hitters in the league, and even with a ballpark downgrade and average hitting weather, there is no way he should be priced this high.
I have the true odds for the Athletics catcher at around +325, making this a great bet.
Pick: Shea Langeliers Home Run
| | | | | |
Dodgers vs Padres Prediction, Pick
Walker Buehler is having a good season when it comes to suppressing power, but the Padres SP grades out as a plus matchup for righty power and has historically been a reverse-splits pitcher.
Andy Pages has been slow the last few weeks, but he has a lot of pop. I have the true odds here at around +525 for the Dodgers center fielder.
Pick: Andy Pages Home Run
