⚾ Top MLB Home Run Picks for Today

Making some picks on the long ball truly is an awesome way to add even more value to our MLB expert picks, and we’re going to break down why we’re targeting the guys that we are today. That will include some of the factors that we use to make our best MLB home run picks, but if you just want the names now, we’ve got you covered there as well:

 

 

 

🔥 Best Matchups for Home Runs Today, 4/19: Ballpark Factors & Weather Impact

In terms of the factors that we consider for our MLB home run predictions, there are many. From obvious ones like pitcher vs. hitter matchups to ones that some fans overlook like our MLB weather report, there is quite a bit that goes into each play.

We also check out more advanced stats that you don’t see in box scores like barrel rate, hard contact and simply the form that some hitters or pitchers are in. So, let’s get further into each of our best MLB home run picks for today.

Freddie Freeman (+395)

You saw us throw in a bit of a disclaimer regarding Ohtani above as well, and that’s because we also like him to go yard today as well; however, as you can see, it’s about as “bad” of home run odds as we’ll see throughout the season. So, let’s get more value to start our best MLB home run picks for today.

Freeman is another lefty who should feast on righty Michael Lorenzen this afternoon. Coors Field speaks for itself, and Max Muncy has been on a tear, but Freeman is arguably the most consistent hitter in all of baseball, especially when it comes to extra-base hits. We’re also going to see the weather heat up in Colorado.

After being in the 30’s, it’s set to be mid-60’s this afternoon to help us hit the first of our top MLB home run picks on Freddie Freeman to hit a HR (+395 at Novig).

Shea Langeliers (+364)

We’re going to stay out west and go to a game actually in California. Well, the Athletics don’t have much of a home these days, but they’re rather heavily favored; of course, facing the Chicago White Sox helps with that. So, we’re checking out the A’s catcher with our best MLB home run picks for today.

Langeliers already has six dingers this year while hitting .325 with a .600 slugging percentage, so what’s not to love? This is a righty top-of-the-lineup guy that gets to face a lefty in Noah Schultz this season. The Sox starter has just one start on the season while Langeliers seven hits in his last four games alone.

He’s seeing the ball well right now, so let’s lock in Shea Langeliers to hit a HR (+364 at DraftKings) as part of our top MLB home run picks today.

James Wood (+710)

We saved the toughest sell for last. That may seem strange given that James Wood has been a beast with seven homers this season, but he doesn’t have the ultimate matchup facing Robbie Ray this afternoon. Even with the lefty vs. lefty matchup, we like the Washington Nationals outfielder as part of our MLB home run picks.

This is as low as around +615 at some spots, so, you’ll definitely want to get the best of the number here. Wood’s not only been going yard, but he’s also got the sixth-best barrel rate so far this season - even better than Shohei Ohtani! Freeman is also one of the guys just above him, so we love this factor today.

Along with some wind in the nation’s capital, we’re adding to our best MLB home run picks for today with James Wood to hit a HR (+710 at FanDuel).

 

 

 

🚀 Longshot Home Run Picks Today

All HR plays provide some awesome payouts, but let’s take things a step further. We cashed our best MLB home run longshot pick just two nights ago, so let’s check out our target for today:

You may have thought the Wood could have been a longshot, but we’re going big to close out the weekend! Reid Detmers for the Los Angeles Angels just had his best outing of the year, but went just 4.1 innings the start prior while allowing six runs. So, let’s see if we can hit another longshot with our MLB home run picks!
