⚾ Top MLB Home Run Picks for Today

As we saw with that Mexico City series, the HR odds were even shorter than when we see games at Coors Field. Speaking of which, we saw the Colorado Rockies game with the New York Mets delayed yesterday, so there were no MLB expert picks on that front.

Of course, you’re here for our best MLB home run picks for today, and if you just want the names without the full breakdowns…

 

 

 

🔥 Best Matchups for Home Runs Today, 4/26: Ballpark Factors & Weather Impact

For those that DO want some reasoning for those guys, that’s what we’re here for! It’s also why our MLB weather report is here, as that is certainly one of the factors to consider. Also affecting our best MLB home run picks today are ones like pitching matchups, hard contact & whiff rates and more.

Shohei Ohtani (+200)

We know that this is one of the most popular, least outside-the-box, even boring home run targets, but it’s just one to get us started. We’ve got two Japanese ballers going at it with Shohei Ohtani and Chicago Cubs starter Shota Imanaga, and we’re going to trust the one at the plate with our best MLB home run picks today.

Ohtani speaks for himself at this point, and after seeing his Los Angeles Dodgers put up 12 runs last night, Dodger Stadium is living up to its reputation for being a great hitter’s ballpark. That should continue this afternoon with yet another day with double-digit winds blowing out. We know it’s lefty vs. lefty, but Ohtani truly is matchup-proof.

After Max Muncy going yard last night, we’re starting our best MLB home run picks today with Shohei Ohtani to hit a HR (+200 at FanDuel).

Matt Olson (+300)

This is another big name, but after we’ve cashed using him before, hit a longshot with Michael Harris and how the Atlanta Braves offense has been on a tear this season, why fight it? Just about their entire lineup has hot matchups with Philadelphia Phillies starter Aaron Nola, so they could have several of our MLB home run picks.

He hasn’t faced his NL East rival yet this season, but the Phillies have now lost each of his last three starts and four of his first five. Nola’s allowed a homer in three of those five starts, and again, Atlanta has been able to hit anyone these days. For the great rivalry, let’s enjoy adding to our best MLB home run picks today with Matt Olson to hit a HR (+300 at Novig).

Jose Ramirez (+454)

Nola is a pitcher that fans have enjoyed picking on at times, but perhaps no other starter has been targeted more the past handful of seasons than Patrick Corbin. That’s why the lefty is on yet another new team with the Toronto Blue Jays, hence why we have a Cleveland Guardian as part of our MLB home run picks.

Ramirez remains one of the most consistent hitters overall, but he certainly doesn’t lack power. He’s got six homers so far this season, four of which have come against lefties. He’s also had at least hit in six straight games now with 21 in total in April thus far, so he’s seeing the ball well. With all that in mind, let’s add Jose Ramirez to hit a HR (+454 at DraftKings) to our best MLB home run picks for today.

We’ve already picked on Patrick Corbin with Jose Ramirez, so why not do so again?

It’s still a longshot, but a great way to add to our best MLB home run picks today!
