Home Run Prop Picks, Predictions and Odds May 13
Daily MLB Home Run Prop Bets
We have a full slate of night time MLB action tonight as we try and dodge matchups including stud pitchers like Max Scherzer, Gerrit Cole and Clayton Kershaw. Sportsmemo content contributor Kyle Kargel provides his home run prop predictions and picks for Friday, May 13 with odds provided by FanDuel.
Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Marcell Ozuna (+480)
Whatever you do don’t look at Marcel Ozuna’s stats for the month of May when looking at this prop. He’s been terrible hitting this month so far but he goes up against Yu Darvish tonight who Ozuna has had some mild success against in the past.
He’s 5-16 in his career against Darvish with one home run that came earlier this season. His batting average is over 40 points higher at home than on the road and something has to give for him soon.
For what it’s worth Ozuna was 5-16 also in the Braves series with San Diego earlier in April. Looks like a bounce back spot to me!
Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Trey Mancini (+610)
I usually wouldn’t advocate picking a batter to hit a home run at Comerica Park, but Trey Mancini’s numbers against Tigers starter Eduardo Rodriguez are hard to ignore.
He’s 12-39 in total with two home runs. He’s hitting .286 so far this season, but is batting .325 against lefties and .417 for the month of May. He’s averaged 26 home runs hit over his past four season played and is far behind that pace so far this season.
Rodriguez has been less than impressive so far this season as well allowing four home runs in five starts and has a 4.50 ERA. For +610 let’s take a flyer on Mancini to crank one out of Comerica Park tonight.
