Fresh off cashing Byron Buxton (+325) and Shohei Ohtani (+320) Friday night, SBR's Andrew Brennan is back with his best home run bets for Saturday, June 28th:
DET Riley Greene to hit a home run (+400 via bet365)
MIN Byron Buxton to hit a home run (+375 via BetMGM)
LAD Shohei Ohtani to hit a home run (+240 via FanDuel)
LAA Mike Trout to hit a home run (+300 via FanDuel)
Parlay odds: +22461 via FanDuel ($10 to win $2,246.10)
Best Bet: Byron Buxton (Twins) to hit a home run
"Buxton is scorching-hot at the dish right now, as he crushed his 18th homer of the season last night. That gives him eight in the last 30 days.
We've always known the talent is there with Buxton, but the issue is his inability to stay healthy. Therefore, as long as he's playing, we need to keep betting on him.
That's especially true this afternoon in Detroit, where the wind is blowing out to center and Casey Mize is on the hill for the home team. Mize gives up a decent amount of hard contact and his ground-ball rate is down from last year. Mize has been good overall, but he's been bitten by the home run ball at an above-average rate, as his HR/9 is in the lower half among pitchers who've thrown at least 70 innings.
Buxton came through for us last night, and I'm betting on him to do so again this afternoon."
