Daily Home Run Prop Picks, Predictions and Odds 5/27/22
Daily MLB Home Run Prop Bets May 27
Who will hit a home run tonight after 18 different players hit a one yesterday? WagerTalk content contributor Kyle Kargel provides his home run prop picks and predictions for Friday, May 27 with odds provided by FanDuel.
Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Justin Turner (+500)
Justin Turner has had success against Arizona this season as far as power goes with two of his four home runs coming against the Diamondbacks in 19 at-bats.
Sure his average sits at just .208 but against Diamondbacks starter tonight, Madison Bumgarner he’s 19-75 with four home runs in his career.
These two are familiar foes having battled in the NL West now for almost a decade. There’s not many discrepancies when it comes to his season splits but two of his four home runs have come against left handed pitching in over less than half the amount of at-bats he’s accumulated compared to righties.
He went 2-6 with two doubles last night in the Dodgers 14-1 win. Turner has yet to hit a home run on the road this season and with someone who was projected to hit around 20 home runs at the start of the season let’s take him to hit his first road home run this season tonight!
Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Max Kepler (+540)
Royals starter tonight Brad Keller has been less than impressive over his last three starts allowing 12 earned runs including three home runs in 19.2 innings pitched.
Kepler had five home runs in April and only one in May thus far. He’s hitless in his last nine at-bats but his career numbers against Keller are hard to ignore going 6-16 with two home runs. Kepler is used to hitting with power hitting 36 home runs in 2019, but he regressed to hitting 19 in 2021.
He sports a worse batting average at home than on the road surprisingly, but five of his six home runs have come against right handed pitching at home which is the matchup we have tonight. Look for Kepler to bounce back as far as power is concerned and blast a home run out of Target Field tonight.
