Home Run Picks Today

I have three MLB home run picks today for Dinger Tuesday.

Home Run Pick #1: Daulton Varsho (+390 at FanDuel with 50% Profit Boost)

My favorite home run pick today is Daulton Varsho for the Blue Jays. Varsho is originally +260 at FanDuel, but with the 50% Dinger Tuesday boost, he is now +390. Those are great odds for a player like Varsho in this matchup.

Bailey Ober takes the mound for the Twins tonight, and he has a 2.0 home run per nine this season. He has given up four home runs over his last four starts, and in his last nine starts, Ober has allowed 19 home runs.

Lefties have done most of the damage against Ober as they have hit 16 of the 25 home runs that he has given up this season. They are also slugging .521 against him.

Varsho is hot right now, hitting seven home runs and slugging .631 over the last 30 days. He is at home, where he is comfortable. Varsho is slugging .608 at Rodgers Centre.

More importantly, he is slugging .669 vs. right-handed pitching, and Varsho has hit all 15 of his home runs this year off righties.

He has an exit velocity of 90.4 and a 44% hard-hit rate. His underlying numbers are there, and he is in a perfect position to hit his 16th home run of the season tonight against Ober.

Home Run Pick #2: Jo Adell (+285 at FanDuel)

My next home run pick today is Jo Adell. He is facing Patrick Corbin, who has given up a home run in four straight starts.

Right-handed batters have hit 13 of the 18 homers that Corbin has allowed this season.

Adell has the power to hit another home run tonight with a 91.1 exit velocity and a 49.2% hard-hit rate. He is also slugging .584 against lefties, making this a great matchup.

Adell has been crushing it lately. He has three home runs and is slugging .800 over the last seven days.

He has not homered off Corbin yet, bit he is 3-8, so he is batting .375 with a triple. It is time for him to go yard against Corbin, who has struggled to keep the ball in play.

Home Run Pick #3: Ryan O’Hearn (+520 at FanDuel)

My last home run pick of the day is Ryan O’Hearn of the San Diego Padres.

He is going up against Luis Castillo and the Mariners, and Castillo has struggled with the longball of late. He has given up seven home runs in his last four starts.

Lefties have hit 11 of the 19 home runs that Castillo has allowed, and they are slugging .498 against him.

T-Mobile Park is not a big home run park, but interestingly enough, Castillo has given up more home runs at home in Seattle than he has on the road.

O’Hearn has hit two home runs and is slugging .500 over the last 15 days. He has an exit velocity of 90.1, a 45.4% hard hit rate, and to make his underlying numbers even better, O’Hearn ranks in the 87th percentile in launch angle sweet spot.

14 of O’Hearn’s 16 home runs have come off right-handed pitching, making him a great bet to go yard tonight.
