🔥 Best Matchups for Home Runs Today, 5/31: Ballpark Factors & Weather Impact

Our MLB weather report is worth a look before locking in any MLB home run picks today. Sunday conditions can shift between morning and first pitch across several parks. Of course, we’ll also be looking at some HR/FB ratios, pitch types, barrel rates and so much more. Here is how our three best MLB home run picks for today break down:

James Wood (+400)

Matt Olson’s homer last night cashed for us at one of our favorite stadiums for homers - the Great American Ball Park, but we’re going to start with one of the early games alongside that one. We’re heading to the nation’s capital for Padres vs. Nationals and riding with the home team’s leadoff man with our top MLB home run picks today.

James Wood has 15 homers this season, which is tied for the 5th-most in baseball. The lefty has been part of a dynamic offense that can put up runs in bunches, and he is no stranger to a first-inning bomb. Going against San Diego starter Griffin Canning, he can certainly do just that; the righty loves throwing his change-up to lefties.

Wood is hitting .353 vs. such pitches this season, and of course, going with a four-seamer instead just means increased exit velocity. Regardless of which pitch it comes off of, we’re starting our best MLB home run picks for today with James Wood to hit a HR (+400 at FanDuel Sportsbook).

Shohei Ohtani (+300)

Bryce Harper didn’t go yard for us last night, but he still had a strong game with three total hits+runs+RBI. Dodger Stadium remains a solid HR target, but with LA starting stud Yoshinobu Yamamoto, we’re pivoting from the Phillie lineup. That means a plethora of options to lock in another one of our MLB home run picks.

Several of them could and should hit dingers facing Philly rookie starter Andrew Painter. He doesn’t do anything special other than trying to be more diverse vs. righties, but of course, Ohtani will be on the other side of the plate. So, why not give his fellow Japanese pitcher on the mound some run support?

This is now two leadoff homer possibilities since we’re adding Shohei Ohtani to hit a HR (+300 at BetMGM Sportsbook) to our best MLB home run picks for today.

Willy Adames (+363)

Admittedly, we don’t often target San Francisco Giants here, but of course, being at Coors Field changes things. The big target will be for the Colorado Rockies of Hunter Goodman, and rightfully so, but as it turns out, it’s only fitting that we give ourselves an opportunity to hit our MLB home run picks with THREE leadoff homers!

That’s because Willy Adames has been leading off for the Giants, who will be taking on Tanner Goodman. The best way to summarize this righty is that he doesn’t do much beyond his four-seamer while keeping things in the zone (5% walk rate), which means tons of opportunities for hard contact.

Let’s see if we can get multiple early cashes today with our best MLB home run picks by adding Willy Adames to hit a HR (+363 at Novig Sportsbook).

 

 

 

🚀 Longshot Home Run Picks Today

Every Sunday slate has a number that stands out as too big to ignore, and we’ve even been able to hit some huge payouts. Here is the longshot we are targeting to close out May:

It’s only fitting that we somehow get the Great American Ball Park in here in some fashion. The Braves have been good to us, and while Reds starter Nick Lodolo prefers his curveball and change-up, the Cincinnati bullpen is among the worst in the MLB. We certainly won’t complain if it comes later in the game if we’re hitting an MLB longshot home run pick!
