He\u2019s allowing left handed batters to hit .250 to go along with a .512 slugging percentage compared to a .216 average and .405 slugging percentage against right handed hitters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seymour has allowed 23 home runs on the season with 13 of those coming at home and all-time against Seymour, Abreu is 1-3 with a home run. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s <strong>take Abreu\u2019s home run props tonight at +480<\/strong> with other Red Sox to consider for home run props being <strong>Jahmai Jones (+460)<\/strong> and <strong>Roman Anthony (+520)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/add-digital-download-to-cart?data_digitalDownloadID=4243&amp;nc=1\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"830\" height=\"690\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-02-at-7.46.17-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40039\" style=\"width:346px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-02-at-7.46.17-AM.png 830w, https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-02-at-7.46.17-AM-300x249.png 300w, https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-02-at-7.46.17-AM-768x638.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MLB <strong>Home Run Prop<\/strong>s Best Bet of the Day #2: Randy Arozarena (SEA) +420<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although we didn\u2019t hit on home run props with Randy Arozarena last Friday, we\u2019re going to go back to the well this Friday with him and take his home run props as the Mariners and Rockies start up a three-game series at Coors Field tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It looks like Gabriel Hughes is getting the start for Colorado who is 0-8 on the season while sporting a 6.37 ERA and allowing a home run in six of his last eight starts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Arozarena has done damage at the plate this month so far batting .310 and slugging .569 to go along with four home runs. He rides a six-game hitting streak into this one while hitting 16 of his 25 total home runs on the road this season and batting .307 compared to batting .243 at home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His 25 home runs are the second most he\u2019s had in one season for his career sitting just three short of setting a new single season high. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At max Hughes should only go five innings in this one with the Rockies bullpen allowing the tenth most home runs this season of any bullpen unit and the pitching staff overall is tied for the second most home runs allowed of the last 15 days with 23. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Arozarena slugging .769 over the past week <strong>let\u2019s go with him to hit his home run props tonight at +420 odds<\/strong>.
