MLB Home Run Picks for May 24
Elly De La Cruz (+450)
vs Cubs (SP: RHP Colin Rea)
Elly De La Cruz is in a good home run spot on Saturday.
Great American Ball Park in one of the best in the league for power and the matchup is a great one.
Cubs starter Colin Rea has been hit hard by lefties in his career, giving up 1.45 HR/9 in his career.
I have the true odds on Elly around +400 today.
Ronald Acuna Jr. (+470)
vs. Padres (SP: RHP Michael King)
I decided to hold off on betting on Ronald Acuna Jr. yesterday because I was worried about how he'd look in his first game back — needless to say, I regret doing that after he homered on the first pitch he saw.
Acuna looks fully healthy and the odds here today are good.
Padres right-hander Michael King is a tougher-than-average matchup for HRs, but the odds are more than good enough to make up for it.
I have the true odds on Acuna around +400.
Brandon Lowe (+500)
vs. Blue Jays (SP: RHP Jose Berrios)
Make sure you have the right Lowe today because Josh Lowe is priced correctly today — but Brandon Lowe definitely is not.
Lowe gets a great matchup against the Blue Jays' Jose Berrios, who has been hit hard by lefties in his career.
George M. Steinbrenner Field is great for lefty power with the short right-field porch and the temperatures should be in the high 80s with good humidity.
I have the true odds on Lowe around +425.
Shea Langeliers (+575)
vs. Phillies (SP: LHP Cristopher Sanchez)
It looks like they entirely mispriced Shea Langeliers tonight for no reason.
The weather is great for hitting with the winds blowing out at 11 mph and temps in the high 70s.
Langeliers is one of the better HR hitters in the league and he gets a matchup against a lefty in the Phillies' Cristopher Sanchez.
I have the true odds around +400.
