Today’s Best MLB Home Run Prop Bets
5. Ben Rice (+366) ( New York Yankees vs Los Angeles Angels)
Yankees slugger Ben Rice steps into a prime hitting spot against the Los Angeles Angels. Rice has put together an explosive power campaign. He enters Monday’s matchup with 35 home runs and 86 RBIs.
Rice is coming off a strong 2-for-5, 3-RBI performance on Sunday against the Boston Red Sox. His smooth, lefty swing plane is tailor-made for Angel Stadium.
4. Austin Riley (+346) (Atlanta Braves vs San Francisco Giants)
Braves third baseman Austin Riley went 1-for-4 in Sunday’s extra-inning victory over the Colorado Rockies. He has hit 15 homers this season.
The Giants pitching staff is prone to giving up hard-hit fly balls. As such, Riley’s raw power and quick hands give him a massive edge to pull mistake pitches into the outfield stands. Expect the Braves slugger to isolate a mislocated heater and clear the wall.
3. Matt Olson (+316) (Atlanta Braves vs San Francisco Giants)
Braves first baseman Matt Olson will be looking to build on his 2026 home run total, which is now at 37. He went 1-for-5 with an RBI in Sunday’s series-ending win against the Rockies.
Olson thrives at home. He leverages his smooth left-handed swing plane and massive exit velocities to punish elevated fastballs over the right-field fence. Expect the Braves powerhouse to jump on an early fastball over the inner half and launch a drive deep into the Atlanta stands.
2. Pete Crow-Armstrong (+307) (Chicago Cubs vs Milwaukee Brewers)
Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong brings a scorching bat into Wrigley Field as Chicago’s NL Central division race continues against the Milwaukee Brewers. The outfielder recorded five home runs in his last two outings against the Cincinnati Reds.
Crow-Armstrong’s elite bat speed and pullside launch angles make him a constant moonshot threat against any pitching staff. Expect the dynamic outfielder to ride his hot hand and elevate his 39th drive over the wall.
1. Gunnar Henderson (+283) (Baltimore Orioles vs Colorado Rockies)
Orioles superstar shortstop Gunnar Henderson is coming off a massive performance on Sunday against Oakland. He went 4-for-4 with two home runs and 5 RBIs in Baltimore’s 8-5 victory.
Henderson’s power and elite exit velocities give him an overwhelming advantage in the thin air of Denver. Expect Henderson to stay hyper-aggressive early in the count and clear the outfield fence for the 23rd time this season.
