Sluggers Eye Series: Home Run Props Heat Up
12 Oct
Summary
- Two veteran sluggers are targeted for home run props.
- Yandy Diaz has strong splits against left-handed pitching.
- Freddie Freeman has a history of clutch playoff hitting.
The MLB postseason continues with Game 2 of the NLCS between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Brewers, and Game 1 of the ALCS featuring the Cleveland Guardians against the Tampa Bay Rays. Betting on home runs presents an exciting opportunity, particularly with favorable payouts in the postseason.
Yandy Diaz is highlighted as a strong home run prop bet. Despite a modest regular season home run total, he hit eight home runs against left-handed pitching and boasts a .318 batting average at home. He faces Cleveland's Foster Griffin, who allowed 23 home runs during the regular season.
Freddie Freeman is also a recommended home run bet, especially given his performance in the NLDS and his career as a clutch playoff hitter. Although he is hitless in four at-bats against Milwaukee's Logan Henderson, Freeman's regular season numbers against right-handed pitchers and Henderson's vulnerability to home runs make him an attractive option.
