Braves vs. Nationals Home Run Prop
C.J. Abrams
Over 0.5 Home Runs (+450)
This is a good spot, and these odds are a bit too high.
Grant Holmes has been an above-average matchup for lefty power this season, allowing a 1.38 HR/9.
The weather should be above average for hitting, and although Abrams has been in a bit of a slump recently, he's still a great HR hitter.
I have the true odds here around +400, making this a great bet.
Pick: C.J. Abrams Over 0.5 Home Runs (+450)
Orioles vs. Rockies Home Run Pick
Gunnar Henderson
Over 0.5 Home Runs (+392)
This is a great spot for the Baltimore power bats, and the odds are a bit too high on all of them.
Tomoyuki Sugano is a gas can for lefty power, allowing a massive 2.34 HR/9 in his career, and he's also been a matchup that is well above average for righty power (career 1.40 HR/9).
This ballpark is one of the best in the league for power, and the weather should be above average for hitting, with temps in the mid-80s.
I have the true odds here around +350.
Pick: Gunnar Henderson Over 0.5 Home Runs (+392)
Giants vs. Pirates HR Pick
Rafael Devers
Over 0.5 Home Runs (+500)
Devers is one of the hottest bats in the league right now, and I have no idea why he's priced so high given the spot.
Jared Jones has been an above-average matchup for lefty power both this season and in his career.
This ballpark is a slight upgrade for Devers, and he has been hammering the ball, with 9 bombs since the beginning of August.
I have the true odds here around +400.
