Did you know that WagerTalk, the largest picks site online offers MLB picks free every day, as well as cheap premium paid MLB picks from expert professional handicappers?

Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Matt Chapman (+350)

Blue Jays third baseman Matt Chapman is seeing the ball clearer than ever this year with an average sitting at .374 entering their game against Boston tonight.

Chapman is a career .246 hitter who is primarily known for his power and has a good shot to hit a home run out of Fenway Park tonight.

The Red Sox send Nick Pivetta to the mound who has allowed four home runs in 14 innings pitched at home so far this season. Last season Pivetta wasn’t much better at Fenway Park allowing a home run every six innings pitched.

Chapman hasn’t hit a home run since April 18 and he’s due considering how great he’s making contact with the ball. Four of Chapman’s five home runs have come on the road with the third baseman hitting .385 at Fenway Park last season as well.

Pivetta has a tendency to give up home runs so grab Chapman to hit one tonight at +350 with other Blue Jays hitters to consider are Bo Bichette (+480) who is 10-24 with two home runs all time against Pivetta and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (+300) who has two home runs off Pivetta as well.

Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Kris Bryant (+340)

Eric Lauer may still be having nightmares about his lone start at Coors Field last season where he allowed seven earned runs including two home runs in 2.2 innings pitched. He’ll get the start there tonight for the Brewers going up against Kris Bryant and the Rockies.

Two of three home runs hit by Bryant this season have come against lefties in 25 at-bats with his other one coming in 78 at-bats against righties.

Bryant is 3-9 with a home run of Lauer in his career and the Milwaukee starter hasn’t been great this season in general as well. He’s already allowed six home runs in 26 innings pitched while last season he allowed a home run every 5.2 at-bats to the opposition.

Like Chapman, Bryant hasn’t hit a home run since April 18 making this a great opportunity to play on him in a valuable matchup against Lauer and the Brewers tonight.

Get Bryant at +340 to hit a home run at Coors Field tonight with other Rockies players who could potentially hit one are C.J. Cron (+290) and Randal Grichuk (+210).
