Top MLB Players Eyeing Home Run Glory Today

The Major League Baseball diamond might be erupting with spectacular home runs today, considering our top five picks for MLB home run prop bets are a compelling mix of red-hot hitters, escalating power, and enticing pitching duels. From Corbin Carroll who’s been astonishingly consistent with his home run record, to Aaron Judge who is due for a spectacular performance after a short slump, these power hitters are poised for a commendable day. Mike Trout with his exceptional rate of hard hits, Pete Alonso’s unrelenting power, and Marcell Ozuna’s latest spectacular multi-homer show make up a lineup brimming with transformative potential.

Kicking off the list at #5, we have Corbin Carroll (+220) showing an impressive form in the current MLB season. Carroll is currently in a groove, performing the quintessential baseball action flawlessly – see the ball, hit the ball. The Diamondbacks’ swift runner has emerged as a significant power threat, carrying his triumphant three-game home run streak into today’s duel.

Carroll is up against the Rockies’ right-handed pitcher, Tanner Gordon. Gordon, despite his 6.59 ERA, might struggle with Carroll’s rapid and powerful swings. Carroll’s prowess to catch fastballs could pose a challenge for Gordon, who has previously shown susceptibility to home run hits. Given Carroll’s current form, a fourth back-to-back game home run is a high possibility.

Marcell Ozuna (+400) places fourth on our list. Coming off a roaring performance in Saturday’s doubleheader, he thrashed two home runs and secured four runs in the second game of the day. Today, he will face Cal Quantrill, who seems to be weighed down by a 5.21 ERA and a repeated inability to keep the ball within the boundary.

Ozuna’s impeccable swing and timing rhythm have been the talk of the league lately, and when he hits this kind of stride, the pitchers are often left to rue their pitching decisions. If yesterday’s game is a sign of things to come, Ozuna could be setting off some fireworks today.

Pete Alonso (+330), our number 3, is always a threat to send the ball out of the ground the second he assumes his batting stance. The Mets’ hard-hitter vaulted a solo homer in yesterday’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers, which is a testament to his undying power. Today, his opponent is Quinn Priester, a formidable right-handed player with a commendable 3.15 ERA.

Alonso, however, has an impressive history of standing tall against superior pitchers, which means that he could be a game-changer in any duel. His season record boasts 26 home runs and 92 RBIs, meaning he is fully equipped to smash the ball for a home run in successive games, especially when his timing sync is as exceptional as it currently is.

At number 2 is Mike Trout (+340). His numbers for this season may not reflect the typical level that you would associate with an MVP, but one glance at his statistics reveals a different tale. Trout persists in striking the ball with force, as his average exit velocity of 91.1 mph, a 49.5% hard-hit rate, and a barrel per plate appearance rate of 15.5% corroborate.

Today, Trout is up against Casey Mize, a right-handed pitcher with a somewhat noteworthy 3.50 ERA. Though Mize has a respectable ERA, Trout’s uncanny knack for punishing every wrong pitch could create an unfavorable duel for Detroit. With 20 home runs to his name already this season, Trout seems ripe to deliver another attention-seizing swing based on his impressive power profile.

Topping our list at #1 is Aaron Judge (+215). Despite not hitting any home runs since his comeback from injury, a dry spell like this is uncommon for a player with his potential. So far this season, the Yankees’ powerhouse is sporting an impressive .339 batting average, 37 homers, 86 RBIs and 92 runs, demonstrating his prowess at the plate.

In today’s game, Judge is set to face Jason Alexander, a right-handed pitcher nursing a 5.97 ERA, who has been unable to effectively constrain hitters within the ballpark. Judge’s fusion of discipline at the plate and unfiltered power renders him an ever-present game-changer who can impact the result with a single swing. The stage seems perfectly set for him to hit his first home run post his injury hiatus.
