🔥 Best Matchups for Home Runs Today, 7/8: Ballpark Factors & Weather Impact

If you’ve been tailing our MLB home run picks, and hopefully you have with the various hot streaks that we’ve been on, then you know that we’ll always refer you back to our MLB weather report. Once we check out those conditions, it’s time to check out the starters on the bump.

That also means bullpen performances come next, as we don’t care if our MLB home run picks cash in the first inning or in walk-off fashion. Of course, the hitters themselves are also massive factors, so we’ll dive into their metrics as well. That means everything from righty/lefty splits, expected slugging, hard-hit rates, and more. Here’s how our top MLB home run predictions break down.

Yordan Alvarez (+271)

We know that you were already thinking it once you saw the name - yes, we targeted the AL MVP favorite yesterday, and he didn’t come through. However, Nationals Park remains our top spot for dingers today, and he gets another lefty on the mound. We’d have to see much more to keep us off the famous lefty vs. lefty hitter for our top MLB home run picks today.

Washington’s starting Foster Griffin tonight, and while he is far from the worst southpaw on the mound, no one scares us when it comes to a career .313/.560./922 hitter vs. left-handed pitching. Of course, the same remains from yesterday - Washington has the league’s third-highest bullpen ERA if this isn’t a first-inning homer.

We don’t love repeats, but we’re leading off our best MLB home run picks for today with Yordan Alvarez to hit a HR (+271 at Novig).

Mickey Moniak (+365)

Roki Sasaki is coming off back-to-back games against the San Diego Padres, and now he gets another NL West rival in the Colorado Rockies. While yesterday was all about Shohei Ohtani’s 300th home run, we’re fading their starter tonight. The righty recorded just two and three strikeouts vs. SD, with the most recent being one where multiple MLB home run picks cashed.

In just three innings, Sasaki allowed six earned runs with THREE homers allowed. In fact, he’s allowed at least one dinger in four straight starts now. Against the Rockies earlier this season, Sasaki recorded just two K’s against a very K-prone lineup. Kyle Karros hit a homer against him in that game, while our lefty target did so as well - just against the bullpen.

As always, we don’t care when throughout the game it happens, so we love adding to our best MLB home run picks for today with Mickey Moniak hitting a homer (+365 at FanDuel).

Samuel Basallo (+355)

Here comes a play that may surprise more casual fans. Before we fully dive into it, we first need to note that you should consider some Cincinnati Reds sluggers - we aren’t, because odds aren’t widely available with the Philadelphia Phillies not having a listed starter yet. Therefore, we’ll head to an AL East team instead, with the Baltimore Orioles to hit some MLB home run picks.

Despite having Adley Rutschman, the O’s simply have to keep another catcher in the lineup alongside him. This lefty youngster is set up for success at Camden Yards with the Chicago Cubs starting Colin Rea. He has a 1.79 WHIP vs. southpaws, and Basallo has 13 of his 14 homers vs. right-handed pitching, good for a .534 slugging.

It’s not the household name that you’ll see for dingers tonight, but we’re adding to our best MLB home run picks for today with Samuel Basallo to hit a HR (+355 at Caesars).

🚀 Longshot Home Run Picks Today

Those potential payouts are already incredible ways to make the most of the slate, but there is always more to be had. We’ve also dug into the matchups for a way to add to our MLB home run picks above with a longshot pick!

Well, we said that Karros hit a dinger off Sasaki earlier this year, so why not roll with him again? He’s proven to be better than expected, as these odds were often around +1000 earlier in the year. Now at the top of the lineup, we love Kyle Karros as our best MLB home run longshot pick for today.
