Best Home Run Props Today
Angel Martinez Home Run Bet (+513)
Martinez has crushed right-handed pitching this season with seven of his nine home runs coming against righties, and now he gets Zack Littell, who has been getting torched by lefties all year. Littell has already allowed 15 home runs, including 12 to left-handed hitters. Martinez has also been heating up lately with four home runs over the last 15 days. This feels like another really strong spot for him to leave the yard Monday night.
Brandon Nimmo Home Run Bet (+483)
Nimmo has done most of his damage against right-handed pitching this season with five of his six home runs coming off righties, and now he gets Tatsuya Imai, who has struggled against lefties early on. Three of the four home runs Imai has allowed have come against left-handed hitters, who are slugging .514 against him. Nimmo has also been heating up lately with two home runs over the last week. With both guys bringing huge hard-hit numbers into this matchup, this feels like a really nice spot for a Nimmo bomb Monday night.
Kazuma Okamoto Home Run Bet(+433)
Okamoto has been heating up lately with five HRs already in May, and now he gets a pretty nice matchup against Janson Junk. Okamoto has done most of his damage against righties with nine HRs coming from that side. Junk has struggled all season with a 5.07 ERA and continues giving up plenty of fly balls and hard contact. This feels like another really nice spot for an Okamoto bomb Monday night.
