MLB Home Run Bets: June 15 Picks
16 Jun
Summary
- James Wood is on a hot streak with 20 home runs this season.
- Pete Crow-Armstrong has found his stride with five home runs recently.
- Junior Caminero faces a struggling lefty, Eric Lauer, on Monday.
Major League Baseball is set to play a larger role in the sports calendar on Monday, June 15, with the NBA Finals and Stanley Cup Final concluding over the weekend. The focus is on three promising home run prop bets for the evening's games.
Washington Nationals star James Wood is highlighted due to his exceptional performance, boasting 20 home runs and a .972 OPS this season. He is particularly effective against right-handed pitching, having hit 15 home runs with a 1.028 OPS in such matchups. Wood faces Mitch Spence of the Kansas City Royals, who has a career history of surrendering home runs.
Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong is also a strong contender, with a .392 batting average and five home runs in the last two weeks. He has hit nine home runs against right-handed pitching and is set to play against the Colorado Rockies' weak pitching staff, with Michael Lorenzen on the mound.
Tampa Bay Rays All-Star Junior Caminero, who has already hit 15 home runs this season, is another player to watch. He will face Los Angeles Dodgers veteran Eric Lauer, a left-handed pitcher who has struggled recently, allowing 15 home runs across his appearances this season. Caminero's power against both lefties and righties makes him a compelling pick.
