Best Home Run Prop Bets – MLB Free HR Props Picks
Austin Riley (ATL) +330
The Braves look to build on back-to-back wins as they and the Reds play the second of a four-game set in Atlanta tonight.
Cincinnati sends lefty Andrew Abbott to the mound who last season allowed a home run to right handed hitters once every 16.5 at bats.
He’s allowed a home run in three of four starts this season with Austin Riley slugging .667 against left handed pitching on the season.
He slugged .529 in home games last season and that has rolled over to this season so far slugging .613 at Truist Park this season. He’s slugging .813 through four games in May while looking to extend a four-game hitting streak as well.
It’s also worth noting that Riley is batting .327 while slugging .584 in night games versus just a .200 average and .300 slugging percentage in day games with first pitch of this one coming at 7:15 PM ET.
Take Riley to hit a home run tonight at +330 and more Braves batters you could take for a home run include Sean Murphy (+400) and Ozzie Albies (+470).
MLB HR Props Best Bet of the Day #2: Kerry Carpenter (DET) +340
The Tigers head into Colorado as one of the hottest teams in the MLB and actually stand as the best team in the American League!
Their bats have come alive, specifically Kerry Carpenter who is batting .328 on the road this season to go along with a .578 slugging percentage.
They’ll get righty Chase Dollander who is actually coming off a solid home start against the Braves but has allowed eight home runs this season across 25 innings pitched.
Six of those eight home runs have come during home starts with Carpenter blasting three home runs in his last six games, all coming on the road.
Last May, Carpenter had five home runs while slugging .745 with the Tigers outfielder batting .364 and slugging .636 against the Rockies last season.
Carpenter has a home run once every 14 at bats against right handed pitching with Dollander allowing lefties a .583 slugging percentage this season.
Take Carpenter to keep his power streak going and hitting a home run tonight at +340 with other Tigers batters to consider for a home run including Riley Greene (+430) and Spencer Torkelson (+460).
