He&#8217;s batting just .092 with one hit in 13 plate appearances. Still, this number is short for a guy with so much power who also has a great matchup. Dean Kremer allowed 27 home runs last season which was good for 10th in the entire MLB. Kremer allowed 15 of those 27 to left-handed batters. Pasquantino, who missed a majority of last season with an injury, hit eight of his nine home runs against right-handed pitchers and had a .216 ISO. If Pasquantino can get a pitch to hit, he&#8217;s more than capable of clearing the wall at Camden Yards tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Anthony Santander (BAL) +450<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Santander has two home runs in his career of Michael Wacha, and he should be primed to hit a third tonight in Baltimore. In 18 career plate appearances against Wacha, Santander has an average exit velocity of 85.9 MPH and an average launch angle of 22.4 degrees. Wacha allowed 15 home runs last season, and he&#8217;s making his first appearance of 2024. We like Santander to welcome Wacha to the new year with a blast. Santander already has two home runs on the young season, so he is clearly seeing the ball well and making solid contact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Juan Soto (NYY) +390<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Juan Soto has had as good of a start with a new team as you could ask for, and we expect it to continue tonight in Arizona. Soto is 3\/14 in his career off Ryne Nelson, and two of those hits were home runs. Soto is familiar with Nelson from his time in San Diego, so he has experience against this pitcher. Nelson let up nine home runs to left-handed batters last season, and he allowed a higher average to lefties as well. Soto hit his first home run as a Yankee in Houston, and he has a great chance to add a second one tonight in Arizona. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/wt.buzz\/tgs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Check Out GoldSheet Lite!<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_64563\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vRO6OYtiPaQ?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=1&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;hl=en_US&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Maximizing Wins in Early Season MLB Betting: Baseball Tips, Strategies &amp; Insights\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/vRO6OYtiPaQ\/maxresdefault.jpg\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div><span itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vRO6OYtiPaQ\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Maximizing Wins in Early Season MLB Betting: Baseball Tips, Strategies &amp; Insights\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Unlock the secrets to successful early season MLB betting with our comprehensive guide.
