Editor's Note: A home run parlay is not the author's formal recommendation. These home run picks have value as straight bets.
Angels vs Rays Home Run Pick
Mike Trout has been having one of the best power years of his career and the underlying numbers are the best of his career.
The matchup vs. Shane McClanahan has been a rough one this season for power, but he's due for some massive negative regression and grades out as an average matchup for righty power.
The ballpark isn't great, but I have the true odds around +370 making this a great EV bet.
Pick: Mike Trout o0.5 Home Runs (+390)

Giants
Bryce Eldridge hasn't been up in the majors for too long, but he has shown a ton of pop in the minors and the odds are far too good to pass up.
Tanner Gordon is an absolute gas can for lefty power giving up a 2.49 HR/9 and the ballpark is one of the best in the majors for power.
I have the true odds around +370 making this a great EV bet.
Pick: Bryce Eldridge o0.5 Home Runs (+410)

Yankees vs Athletics Home Run Pick
Nick Kurtz has had a down year this season when it comes to power, but the power is absolutely still there and the spot is a decent one.
Will Warren is a good pitcher, but he's much more susceptible to lefty power.
The ballpark is one of the best in the league for HRs and the weather is good today with temps in the low 80s.
I have the true odds on Kurtz around +300 making this a great EV bet.
Pick: Nick Kurtz o0.5 Home Runs (+320)

Diamondbacks vs Mariners Home Run Pick
The spot here is a great one for Corbin Carroll and the odds are way too high.
Carroll is a great power hitter and even with the bad ballpark the pitching matchup is far too good.
The Mariners are rolling out Miller and Castillo again and both are gas cans for lefty power.
I have the true odds around +370 today making this a great EV bet.
Pick: Corbin Carroll o0.5 Home Runs (+440)
