After hitting three home run props last week, we started off this week with a bang, calling a Marcell Ozuna home run Monday night. Today’s card is big, andthere are nice matchups, and some have juicy splits, so let’s dive into home run prop bets.

We have one goal: to stay hot and cash more props. Seven hits in the last 14 articles is absurd, and we are going for more. Here are our best home run prop bets for Friday’s MLB slate.

Best Home Run Prop Bets – MLB Free HR Props Picks

Spencer Steer (CIN) +460

Spencer Steer has two home runs already this season, and tonight, he has a great matchup to hit his third. Chris Flexen makes the start for Chicago, and Flexen is 8th in the MLB in contact allowed for starting pitchers. Flexen features a fastball and changeup as his top two pitches, and Steer led the Reds in run value against both those pitches last season.

Steer had 14 home runs off of righties last season, and 13 of his 23 home runs came on the road. Steer also led the Reds in hard hits over the past week, so he is seeing and hitting the ball very well at the moment. The White Sox bullpen is also not good, so regardless of whether Flexen is on the bump or a reliever, Steer is one of the best home run prop bets to make tonight.

Corey Seager (TEX) +390

Corey Seader is 4/7 in his career off J.P. France with two home runs, and we expect Seager to go yard again tonight in Houston. Seager only has one home run so far this season, but since he came into the season dealing with a nagging injury, we are not concerned about his lack of power so far this year.

Houston’s bullpen has thrown a ton of pitches over the last three and five games, so the Astros need France to go deep into this one. Since this is the case, we project Seager to face France three times, and based on how well Seager has seen France, we love that matchup, making this one of the best home run prop bets to make tonight.
