Daily MLB Home Run Prop Bets<\/h2>\n

Three of the top five home run hitters in the league play for the Bronx Bombers in Aaron Judge, Anthony Rizzo and Giancarlo Stanton. Will one of them hit one tonight against Baltimore? WagerTalk content contributor Kyle Kargel provides his home run prop picks and predictions for Tuesday, May 17 with odds provided by FanDuel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Jose Altuve (+530)<\/h2>\n

Altuve and the rest of the Astros have been hot as of late winning 12 of their last 14 games. They lost last night and tonight they get Nathan Eovaldi on the mound tonight which Altuve posts great numbers against.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s 6-19 with three of those hits being home runs and with him hitting home runs in three of the past five games I see no reason why he can\u2019t hit another one tonight.<\/p>\n

Altuve does post a much worse batting average on the road than at home but has hit four of his seven home runs on the road for what it\u2019s worth. Eovaldi posts an impressive 3.15 ERA but has allowed nine home runs in seven starts this season which is third worst in the MLB.<\/p>\n

Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Ty France (+560)<\/h2>\n

We\u2019re going with a wildcard here in Ty France as he and the Mariners go up against Jose Berrios and the Blue Jays. France is hitting the ball very well with a .324 average on the season so far along with five home runs.<\/p>\n

The problem is all five of those home runs came in April and he\u2019s yet to hit one in May despite maintaining solid contact with the baseball. Berrios has allowed six home runs this year so far and France is 2-3 against the Blue Jays starter in his career.<\/p>\n

He hit 18 home runs in 152 games last season meaning he hit one every eight or nine games. Currently, it\u2019s been 20 games since his last home run. He\u2019s due!<\/p>\n
