Best Home Run Prop Bets – MLB Free HR Props Picks
Salvador Perez (KC) +475
Salvador Perez has a matchup he has dominated today, and we are backing him to go yard. Perez is batting .372 against left-handed pitching, but two of his nine homers have come off a lefty. Perez is 8-21 in his career off of Tarik Skubal with three home runs ball, two doubles, and seven strikeouts. Perez either strikeouts or hits a ball hard against Skubal, but given his past success and the weather, this is one of the best home run prop bets on the board.
This season, Tarik Skubal has allowed three home runs. Skubal has allowed all three of his home runs to righties. Last season, Skubal allowed three home runs in 68.1 innings to right-handed batters. In his 21 at-bats against Skubal, Perez has an average exit velocity of 94.8 miles per hour and an average launch angle of 19.1 degrees. This is one of the best home run props on the board.
Kyle Tucker (HOU) +310
No one is hotter in the Majors than Kyle Tucker, and tonight, he has a great matchup to go yard again. Tucker hit two home runs yesterday, and he has four in his last three games. This season, Tucker has 17 home runs, and 11 of the 17 have come in Houston. Also, five of his 17 home runs have come against left-handed pitching. This is one of the best home run prop bets on the board.
Tyler Anderson has allowed seven home runs so far this season, and this is a matchup that Tucker has dominated. Tucker is 7-9 against Anderson, with a home run, a double, and two triples. He has an average exit velocity of 99.1 miles per hour and an average launch angle of 24.4 degrees. Based on the matchup and the batter vs. pitcher history, this is easily one of the best home run prop bets of the day.
