Varsho has been on fire, and today, he has a great matchup to go yard. Varsho is only batting .226 against right-handed pitching, but he has five of his six home runs against righties. Varsho is 3-9 in his career off of Nola with a home run, and we expect him to hit the long ball again, making this one of the best home run prop bets on the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last season, Nola allowed 16 of his 32 home runs to lefties, and this season, he has allowed five of his seven home runs to lefties. Left-handed batters are doing better against him than lefties are, and Nola allows the long ball at one of the higher rates in the MLB. He is currently tied for fourth in most home runs allowed. <\/p>\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_64715\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IHPyAafZjoI?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=\"MLB Picks Today: Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond | MLB Predictions and Best Bets for Wednesday, May 8\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/IHPyAafZjoI\/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\/IHPyAafZjoI\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"MLB Picks Today: Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond | MLB Predictions and Best Bets for Wednesday, May 8\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"MLB Picks Today for Wednesday, May 8, 2024.
