Prop Hub 7-Day All-Access Special

Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Nick Senzel (+630)

Reds centerfielder Nick Senzel has absolutely crushed left-handed pitching this season. He bats .481 against lefties compared to only .200 against righties.

The Reds and Rockies will conclude their series today at Coors Field with Austin Gomber getting the start for Colorado. At home he’s allowed 18 earned runs in 19.1 innings pitched including five home runs.

Remember Senzel isn’t known for his power as he had only five in 373 at-bats last season, but he’s well on his way to surpassing that number this season with four already in 102 at-bats including one last night in the team’s 3-1 win. We anticipate Senzel maintaining the confidence with his bat, especially playing at Coors Field.

For what it’s worth Senzel has also had more success on the road this season batting .313 with three home runs in 48 at-bats compared to .241 average at the Great American Ballpark with one home run in 54 at-bats.

Get Senzel at a valuable +630 with other Reds hitters who can hit a home run include Will Myers (+350) and Jonathan India (+450).

Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Jarred Kelenic (+600)

Red Sox starter Bryan Bello has given up exactly one home run in each start of his this season and at home specifically, he sports a 5.68 ERA with three home runs given up in 12.2 innings pitched.

We’re going with Mariners left fielder Jarred Kelenic to hit a home run out of Fenway Park tonight. Away from T-Mobile Park this season Kelenic bats .311 while hitting five of his eight total home runs on the season.

After a scorching April where he hit seven home runs, he only has one in May so far. Kelenic has never faced Bello in his career but the Red Sox starter does allow a .333 battier average to opposing left-handed hitters so Kelenic has a solid shot to make some great contact tonight in addition to his home run potential.

Kelenic bats all over the Mariners lineup but he seems to love the 6th spot in the order. He has six of his eight home runs from that spot in 54 at-bats compared to his other two coming in 91 at-bats in all other spots combined.

Grab Kelenic to hit a home run tonight at +600 with other Mariners to consider include Cal Raleigh (+450) and Eugenio Suarez (+450).
