The MLB regular season is now in full swing, and several superstars have put their best foot forward to start their season. They will be taking the field looking to continue performing in the same vein on Wednesday.
Let’s take a look at the top five most likely players to hit home runs.

Today’s best MLB Home Run Prop Bets
#5: Taylor Ward +511
Starting off this list is Baltimore Orioles outfielder Taylor Ward. Coming off a superb season with the Los Angeles Angels where he went year 36 times, Ward was acquired by the Orioles to do the same at Camden Yards.
Though he has not homered yet this season, he has been seeing the ball well, hitting over .300 with two RBIs to his name.
#4: Juan Soto +424
It is not surprising to see one of the best hitters in MLB in Juan Soto make this list, coming off a monster 43-homer season, Soto is expected to replicate or surpass those numbers this year.
Just like Taylor Ward, Soto has not hit a home run yet this season, but there is good reason to believe one is coming soon, as he has been hitting .381, recording four RBIs so far.
#3: Brandon Lowe +372
Acquired from the Tampa Bay Rays to add some much-needed power to the Pittsburgh Pirates’ offense, Brandon Lowe has performed exactly as advertised.
The second baseman has enjoyed an incredible start to life with his new team, batting .333 with three home runs and four RBIs in the five games he has played in so far.
#2: Bryce Harper +325
Two-time NL MVP award winner Bryce Harper also makes it onto this list. The Phillies first baseman has not enjoyed the best of starts to the new season, batting only .100 with two RBIs to his name.
Facing off against Cade Cavalli and the Washington Nationals, however, could be the perfect opportunity for Harper to return to his best.
#1: Matt Olson +293
Coming in at the top of the list is Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson. After a disappointing 2025 season, the Braves have shown signs of improvement this year, and Olson has impressed, batting .263 with an RBI to his name.
Facing off against Luis Severino and the Athletics on Wednesday, we could see the three-time All-Star finally hit his first homer this season.
