In July so far he\u2019s batting .323 to go along with a .710 slugging percentage as the Phillies play at Yankee Stadium tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New York sends righty Will Warren to the mound tonight and although Harper doesn\u2019t have a hit in three at-bats against Warren all-time, we\u2019re banking on Warren\u2019s struggles against left handed batters this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the 11 home runs he has allowed this season, nine of them have come against lefties allowing them to bat .282 with a .481 slugging percentage compared to right handed batters hitting .213 with a .309 slugging percentage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warren has also been shaky as of late allowing five home runs combined in four July starts netting a 7.23 ERA in those starts against top competition similar to the Phillies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Harper had a home run in Wednesday\u2019s 9-8 extra innings loss to the Red Sox and he had home runs in back-to-back games a week ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, Harper is batting just .241 on the road this season but at Yankee Stadium all-time Harper is 8-26 with two home runs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take <strong>Harper to hit a home run tonight at +240 odds<\/strong> and if you want a couple other left handed batters on Philadelphia to take advantage of for a home run, consider <strong>Kyle Schwarber (+200)<\/strong> and <strong>Max Kepler (+420)<\/strong> as well.<\/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_34552\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TErw2oyseio?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=\"Friday MLB Predictions Today | MLB Top Picks Today for July 25, 2025 | Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/TErw2oyseio\/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\/TErw2oyseio\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Friday MLB Predictions Today | MLB Top Picks Today for July 25, 2025 | Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"\u26be\ufe0f Friday MLB Predictions Today | MLB Top Picks Today for July 25, 2025 | Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond: Get MLB best bets, predictions, picks, and daily baseball betting tips from expert handicapper Drew Martin on Drew&#039;s Daily Diamond!
