Given the lighter Thursday and not much afternoon action yesterday, Saturdays always treat baseball fans with action on the diamond all day. That means MLB home run picks have to be on the menu, especially with some of the earliest games being at Yankee Stadium and Wrigley Field. With Coors Field and Sacramento’s Sutter Health Park in action later on, there are some great targets on the board. So, let’s talk about MLB home run predictions.

🔥 Best Matchups for Home Runs Today, 6/20: Ballpark Factors & Weather Impact

For those that want more than just the names above with a full breakdown, we’ve got you covered there as well. We’ll get into each target individually, but when it comes to making any MLB home run picks, you’ll also want to keep tabs on our MLB weather report. As for actual player reports, we need righty/lefty splits, pitch arsenals, batter hard-hit rates and several other factors. All those lead to the best MLB home run picks!

Yordan Alvarez (+275)

When it comes to juggernauts in the lefty vs. lefty game, it’s all about Yordan Alvarez. Well, Corbin Carroll is one too and had a great game last night, but we’re not going to ignore the Houston Astros’ ability to launch moonshots. He’s set up nicely to do so today against Cleveland Guardians starter Joey Cantillo.

Not only is he a southpaw, but he also switches things up LESS against southpaw hitters. That means fewer change-ups and curveballs and more four-seamers, which we love for Yordan to smack with high exit velocities. We don’t have a terrible Cleveland bullpen to pick on like we often enjoy as well, but let’s just grab this one in the first inning.

That way, we’ll start a new streak of cashing MLB home run picks with Yordan Alvarez to hit a HR (+275 at Caesars Sportsbook).

Cody Bellinger (+424)

Speaking of lefties - both pitchers and hitters - Andrew Abbott is on the mound against the New York Yankees today, and we saw Ben Rice homer for the Bronx Bombers last night. So did Jazz Chisholm, Jr. at the HR-friendly Yankee Stadium, and while Rice has another good matchup, we’re on the guy who cashed one of our best MLB home run picks not long ago.

Paul Goldschmidt’s entire career’s worth of dominating lefties is also worth mentioning here, but we still like Bellinger and how much he’s also kept this Yankees lineup together since losing Aaron Judge. We won’t act like he has the raw power as the other two options, but he is amazing against lefties and their sliders (.438 against them this season).

With all that in mind, we’re adding Cody Bellinger to hit a HR (+424 at Novig Sportsbook) to our best MLB home run picks for today.

Dillon Dingler (+500)

While there is indeed a game at Wrigley Field, we’re going to be picking on the other Chicago team today, and it’s not even a game in the Windy City. In fact, the White Sox are at Comerica Park in Detroit, which isn’t even considered awesome for dingers. That said, Dillon Dingler is awesome for MLB home run picks.

The righty has been absolutely ripping the laces off the ball this season, and the White Sox are having a pitching arsenal day (Joe Rock, Jonathan Cannon, Sean Newcomb…who knows at this point). Their relief staff is poor anyway, so we aren’t stressed about who gets the start or more time on the mound.

Riley Greene is your lefty option here, but we prefer the guy with amazing hard-hit rates, barrel rates, sweet spot %’s and everything else we love to see - Dillon Dingler to hit a HR (+500 at bet365 Sportsbook) also makes the cut for our best MLB home run picks for today.

 

 

 

🚀 Longshot Home Run Picks Today

It’s safe to say that Saturdays are never short of value, which means an MLB home run longshot pick is also a must. Here’s who’s on our radar…

We just mentioned the White Sox, and now, rather than attacking their pitching, we’re going to support their young prospect. His future seems extremely bright, and while it’s not the longest of MLB home run longshot picks, it’s one with a very valuable price tag. He’s already hit his first career dinger right after getting called up, so let’s roll with their “other” Montgomery today as well!
