It seems like the Rockies will go with a bullpen game tonight opening up with righty Anthony Molina. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Barger has 16 home runs on the season with 15 of them coming against right handed pitching and good news for him is that the only two left handers from the Colorado bullpen pitched last night combing to throw 93 pitches so it\u2019s almost a guarantee we don\u2019t see them tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, Barger hits better at home this season, but playing at Coors Field and slugging .533 against right handers this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Molina shouldn\u2019t last more than two innings for Colorado, but for what it\u2019s worth he has allowed lefties to bat .381 to go along with a .857 slugging percentage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Blue Jays in general should have another field day today against the Rockies so take <strong>Barger to hit his home run prop with odds listed at +285<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other Blue Jays batters to take advantage of for a home run include <strong>Daulton Varsho (+320)<\/strong> and <strong>Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (+350)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MLB HR Props Best Bet of the Day #2: Freddie Freeman (LAD) +430<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s no doubt about it Freddie Freeman\u2019s power has gone down since the end of May. He had seven home runs the first two months of the season with only two home runs in June and July combined. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He now has two home runs in August with one coming last night and we\u2019re going to take him to hit his home run prop tonight against Miles Mikolas and the Cardinals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Freeman already has two different instances with home runs in back to back games this season and life time he\u2019s 9-20 with three home runs against Mikolas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cardinals starter has allowed 18 home runs in total this season with 12 of them coming on the road and 11 coming against left handed hitters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He allowed a home run in his last start and in five July starts he allowed nine in total. Freeman has been scorching through four games in August so far going 8-17 while sporting a .941 slugging percentage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take <strong>Freeman to hit his home run prop with odds listed at +430<\/strong> with other Dodgers to take for a home run prop include <strong>Mookie Betts (+400)<\/strong> who is 4-10 with two home runs off Mikolas and of course <strong>Shohei Ohtani (+130)<\/strong>.<\/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_95000\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-1CC3N9xRjE?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=\"THREE FREE MLB PICKS! | Best MLB Bets Today August 5, 2025 | Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/-1CC3N9xRjE\/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\/-1CC3N9xRjE\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"THREE FREE MLB PICKS! | Best MLB Bets Today August 5, 2025 | Drew\u2019s Daily Diamond\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"\u26be\ufe0f Tuesday MLB Predictions Today | MLB Top Picks Today for August 5, 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!
