Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Jose Abreu (+350)

I went with Jose Abreu a few days ago and I’m going back to the well with him tonight as the White Sox face off against Jose Berrios and the Blue Jays at home.

Abreu has tons of experience and success against Berrios going 16-53 in his career with three home runs. Berrios also hasn’t been that spectacular this season sporting a 4.65 ERA allowing 12 home runs.

That ERA balloons to 5.97 on the road even with an eight inning, one run allowed performance in his last road start at Detroit. After six road games, the White Sox will be happy to be playing at home once again.

Abreu only has two home runs in his last 14 games positioning him in a nice spot to blast a home run out of Guaranteed Rate Field against a familiar foe.

Get Abreu at +350 but other White Sox hitters to consider are Yoan Moncada if starting (+450) who has hit .308 with three home runs in his career vs Berrios and long shot Leury Garcia (+800).

Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Gleyber Torres (+500)

There’s no denying how dominant Rays ace Shane McClanahan has been this season, but he’ll get the Yankees tonight who have been red hot as of late.

McClanahan has already pitched twice against the Yankees this year combining for 12 innings pitched and allowing three of his ten home runs in those starts. One of those home runs was against Gleyber Torres who in his career against McClanahan is 6-11.

We know this game will be low scoring, but if McClanahan is allowing any type of run, more than likely it will be via home run. McClanahan is a lefty which Torres has had success in general against this season.

Eight of his 13 home runs have come against lefties in 64 at-bats compared to the other five coming against righties in 142 at-bats. He also hits for average better against lefties.

Like I said this is a risky call, but given Torres’ success against McClanahan and against lefties in general this season, roll with him at +500. Other big home run hitters you could consider are Aaron Judge (+320) and Giancarlo Stanton (+320).
