Orioles vs Yankees Home Run Prop Today
The odds for Pete Alonso are far too high.

Pick: Pete Alonso Home Run

Guardians vs Athletics Home Run Pick Today
The A's are in a great spot today, and they're priced far too high.
Slade Cecconi is an absolute gas can for power, giving up around 1.7 HR/9 to both sides of the plate in his career.
The weather isn't bad, and the ballpark is one of the best in the league for power.
I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +350.
Pick: Tyler Soderstrom Home Run

Rangers vs Tigers HR Pick
The weather and ballpark aren't great, but the odds are too high given how good Kevin McGonigle is.
Kumar Rocker is a solid matchup for lefty power.
I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +750.
Pick: Kevin McGonigle Home Run

Royals vs Mariners HR Prop
Emerson Hancock has looked better this season, but he's been hammered by lefty power in his career, giving up a 1.68 HR/9.
The ballpark isn't great, but the odds more than make up for it.
Pasquantino is an above-average power hitter.
I make the fair odds on this home run prop around +450.
Pick: Vinnie Pasquantino Home Run
