Colson Montgomery Home Run

The ballpark is a downgrade, and Troy Melton is an average matchup for lefty power, but Colson Montgomery is one of the best HR hitters in the league.

I have the true odds around +370.

Pick: Colson Montgomery Home Run (+403)



Marlins vs Reds Prediction, HR Pick

Griffin Conine Home Run

The ballpark is a massive upgrade going from one of the worst ballparks in the league to one of the best.

Brady Singer has been a gas can for power this season, he has above-average splits, and he is one of the best matchups in the league for lefty power.

I have the true odds on Conine around +320.

Pick: Griffin Conine Home Run (+410)



Rangers vs Athletics Prediction, HR Pick

Brandon Nimmo Home Run
DraftKings  Logo

J.T. Ginn has been better this season at suppressing lefty power, but he still has been an above-average matchup.

He has allowed a massive 1.61 HR/9 in his career to lefties. The ballpark is a massive upgrade and one of the best ballparks in the league for power.

The weather is also a plus, with temps in the low 80s and the wind blowing out at 6 MPH in one of the most wind receptive ballparks in the league.

I have the true odds on Nimmo around +400.

Pick: Brandon Nimmo Home Run (+470)



Rangers vs Athletics Prediction, HR Pick
