MLB Home Run Props Today: Best HR Picks, Predictions & Bets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Best MLB Home Run Prop Today #1: <\/strong>Max Muncy (LAD) +390<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy has had a solid postseason thus far batting .250 and slugging .813 including three home runs as the Dodgers play the Brewers in Milwaukee for Game 2 of the NLCS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LA dropped Game 1 2-1 yesterday with Muncy going 1-4 and with Milwaukee sending Logan Henderson to the mound. Muncy is 1-5 with a home run all-time against Henderson with the second year pitcher giving up 14 home runs in 98.1 innings during the regular season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ten of those 14 home runs have come off left handed hitters like Muncy while allowing a .360 slugging percentage compared to a .328 slugging percentage against righties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Muncy has 19 career post season home runs in 84 total games and blasted 29 home runs during the regular season with 14 of those coming on the road. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the series shifts to LA after tonight\u2019s game, the Dodgers really can\u2019t afford to go down 0-2 against a Brewers team that is now 4-1 straight up this post season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Muncy at +390 to hit his home run props<\/strong> tonight with other Dodgers to consider for home run props being Shohei Ohtani (+310)<\/strong> and Freddie Freeman (+490)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Best MLB Home Run Prop Today #2: <\/strong>Junior Caminero (TB) +490<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Game 1 of the ALCS is finally here after the Guardians roared back down 0-2 to the White Sox and won three straight games to earn their spot in Tampa Bay tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re going to look at Junior Caminero to cash his home run props tonight as the Rays enjoyed a nice four day break after sweeping the Yankees 3-0 in the ALDS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lefty Foster Griffin takes the mound for the Guardians in Game 1 who allowed 23 home runs this season with 16 of those coming against right handed hitters while also allowing a .265 average and .415 slugging percentage compared to left handed hitters allowing a .204 average and .376 slugging percentage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his only post season appearance against the White Sox he went just 2.2 innings of relief in Game 3 allowing two hits and one earned run. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caminero did most of damage with his power at home this season smashing 22 of his 42 home runs while slugging .560 compared to a .491 slugging percentage on the road. Caminero didn\u2019t hit a home run during that three-game sweep of New York but he did bat .300 including a double. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Runs may come at a premium tonight, but that doesn\u2019t mean Caminero can\u2019t get ahold of one as the Rays will need their offense to make some noise if they want to get past a stingy Guardians pitching staff and defense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Caminero at +490 to hit his home run props<\/strong> tonight. Other Rays batters to consider for home run props includes Jonathan Aranda<\/strong> and Yandy Diaz (+730 each)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
